      Like Ken says, “Every once in a while you see something new!”  So I called Ken and send him this picture.  Someone safetied the flap AN4 peg bolts.  Nice, every with 0.021!Safgety Wire on Pork ChopRoscoe

      A bit of overkill but nice! Guess you never know when those pesky flap bolts might work themselves out!

      Speaking of flap bolts, it makes me cringe every time I see “dimpled” holes in the flap torque tube for the bolts. It’s usually caused by someone not taking time to finger-thread the bolts into the torque tube and instead relying on brute force to “make the bolt line up” – don’t do it! Get a buddy to gentle “wiggle” the flap while you finger-thread the bolt into the torque tube and it’ll find the hole without a ratchet being needed 😉

      Nice catch Roscoe!
