One more write-up for you...
Recently I got to the worn-out point on my horizontal
cowl pin retainer hinges. It prompted me to change
things a bit, and although it's not perfect for me
yet, I think it's far nicer than per-plans verbatim.
Anyway, there are even better ways to do things but
this is real quick and simple if you're stuck having
built per-plans as I did.

Also, I learned the hard way about how tight to tighten
alternator belts, so I now have a new alternator at 725
hours. I added a little write-up on that, showing how
to check proper belt tension. I hope that helps others
down the road so you don't have the same problem.
