Kip,The flybaby was built to the plans and did have the correct wires. Theflybaby uses two wires that run about an inch apart and parallel to eachother. What happened is that the tensions were not even meaning that thetighter wire was taking all the load. It eventually failed. shifting theload to the remaining wire which then failed too.Streamline wire sections were not involved.Pete Bowers stipulates a process to evenly tension the wires and recommendsthey be checked periodically and on any (re)assembly.Chris BobkaEAA tech counselor----- Original Message -----
