Duct tape and a hammer.
If it moves and it shouldn't use the duct tape, it it doesn't move and it should use the hammer. "John E. Carty" wrote in message ... Emergency relief jug & toilet paper :-) "Michael Horowitz" wrote in message ... What tools do you take on a two day XC? - Mike |

Back when I regularly rented a Tiger to carry friends cross-country, I
carried: * wrench, 3/8" box+open end * wrench, 7/16" box+open end * wrench, 1/2" box+open end * wrench, crescent, to 1" * socket, 7/8" hex-top deep * safety wire, 4 feet * vice-grips, small * multi-bit screwdriver * electrical tape, 1 roll The only tools I actually used on such trips were the 3/8" wrench and the screwdriver.

I have aluminum heat shield tape wrapped around the bottom of my Long EZ main gear legs to shield the fiberglass legs from brake disk heat. A number of people have mistaken the aluminum tape for a duct tape "repair". sigh David O -- http://www.AirplaneZone.com |
