Oscar,We all know what Fly_By_Wire is, but we used to call the Prowler "Fly_By_Committee".That poor pilot was outgunned 3 to 1 by those NFO's.We also used to say, "Never trust an NFO that doesn't wear glasses. You don't knowwhat's wrong with him."--------Semper Fi,Terry HandAthens, GARead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: round vs. Flat Lacing

Greg, like Kevin, I used the round and didn't find it hard to work with. On a Piet, I don't think the fact that you can see the stitches after you're finished a bit more with the round makes a difference. When I had to do a field repair to an elevator at Oshkosh this year, I used the flat, and I did have to make sure it wasn't twisted going over the ribs. On future coverings, I'll probably stay with the round cord. Matt PaxtonNX629ML________________________________________________________________________________
