I've seen one some Piets, that their builders ran strap fittings across the bottomcross piece between the landing gear/flying wire/strut attach fittings.My project came with one he had run along the wooden cross piece traversing thefront cockpit floor between the front fittings, but there isn't one between therear set.I can't find them on my plans so I'm thinking it is a builder addition. It kindof makes sense, to just tie everything together side to side, so I'm thinkingI should add one to the back as well.Any thoughts?Douwe________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: N518EP at BlakesburgDate: Wed, 8 Sep 2004 08:24:42 -0500
