For riding safety C I would urge you to take courses from the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (http://www.msf-usa.org/)

With rudder cables properly tensioned for flight C they rest upon the lower aft longerons in the aft fuselage with the bungee removed. This would mean that a grass strip flyer who would routinely use the full stroke of the nose gear may want to inspect those two longerons for markings and add anti-abrasion materials or additional fairleads.

Main spar bolt torques. Since nylo nuts were used I added 20 in/lbs to the torque values.

The 12 bolt torques were checked: all inboard and all outboard bolts remained torqued as they had been upon original inspection. ALL four “middle bolts” (2 on each side C one upper C one lower) lost 16-20 in/lbs of torque. The same inspector used the same torque wrench during both the original and conditional inspection. Most aircraft sevice manuals I have read C raise a caution flag when more than 25% of bolts fall below torque. Here C they did not fall below minimal torque but did fall from where they were originally set.

Anti-wear strips were added 'just in case' in the aft fuselage floor C the four 'middle' main spar nuts were brought back up to par from the low end of proper torque C N5886Q was signed off and is flying again.

Surprised)

On a side note: I am the proud recipient of a brand new 2009 Harley 883 Low... I could use some riding advice via PM or e-mail...
