Hey Guys,

 

I do aerial photography here in Florida using a Firestar. Bought it  

recently. Love that windshield! Had it at 12,000 feet yesterday but MAN was  it ever 

freezing my --- off.

 

When you're up that high looking at the world, sometimes you get to  thinking 

bad thoughts. Not nasty thoughts, though sometimes I think that  too...but 

thoughts like that itty bitty AN3 bolt & nut holding my horizontal  feathers on. 

Does anyone know how tight those wires should be? When I tip the  wires with 

my fingers I get a fine hmmmm to it & it seems awful  drum tight. Has anyone 

ever replaced the bolt with an AN4?

 

I do some crazy crap but you can tell I'm a chicken sh-t at heart! It's  just 

that I fly Trikes too and the cables on Trikes are like the ones on  the 

suspension bridge across Tampa Bay. Not used to this itty  bitty stuff.
