Alternatively:
1. Draw line around outside of fuselage just forward of the mass-balance
stops.
2. Draw 4 lines perpendicular to the line in 1 (i.e. longitudinally along
the aircraft), one on top, one below and one either side
3. Cut aircraft in half around the line drawn in 1
4. Fit Mod 70 at your ease
5. Bond fuselage halves back together using the lines drawn in 2 as guides
to re-align the two halves
6. Go flying again
I dont understand what all the fuss about going down the back is about -
this procedure should obviate it very nicely :-)

Bobert,
Tie one ankle to the joystick and arrange yourself so you can
bend a knee. Sooner rather than later you should be able to grab the rope
and pull yourself to daylight.

| Hi! William and all.
| I appreciate that Neville is a splendid blonde ferret and very willing
| and quick with it too and probably cheap but he still has to charge
| ...the last time I was down the Europa empennage with my arms over my
| head for too long a period with no one around I took severe chest muscle
| cramps and really had a big scare getting out. THAT WAS NO JOKE .
| With the cable stay fix there's no need to visit this problem so I can't
| for the life of me see the necessity of doing away with the cables and
| turnbuckles. Builder input to these problems should have more respect.
| (No doubt all will have a laugh at my expense but I have a thick skin
| anyway.)
| I feel that builders should only venture in there with some assistance
| stood by anyway. Ignore this at your peril.
