Subject: Pietenpol-List: Under fus. tail wire bracketHello Mike Cuy: I'm using your leaf spring tail wheel set up. I'm readyto install the tail wire strap under the fus. This strap is 9 1/2 'ahead of the tail post which puts it between my 2 tail wheel springbolts. The strap is 13 ga. and looks like it needs to be recessed intothe lower ply gusset to clear the tw. spring or another couple ofadditional pieces of thin ply added to place the spring below the strap.Your drawings may show this, but the copier cropped the right side ofpage one which may have shown this. How did you handle this? Leon S.Hutchinson Ks. Working again after a month of burn out. ________________________________________________________________________________
