Do you sell "block time" for your workshop/repair services? Maybe
people tying down their gliders at Minden for long periods of time can
purchase some in advance.

No, but at one time we were accused of running a Grob re-cycle
business, the clubs would bust them up, we purchased them from the
insurance company, repaired them and sell them back to the
clubs...............neat little closed-loop system!

Back to tie-downs, I use a large aluminum cuff (12" X 12" X 1/8") with
a 90 degree flange on top where the strap goes. *I had the local tin-
bender make them up, padded with felt and slip it over the inboard end
of the aileron. All the force is forward over the leading edge, then
down to a come-along then around the cable. With a wing-stand on the
tip it works well, but I'd still rather put it in the box and then tie
down the box.

Hey JJ,

Do you have a tie down solution for ASW27 (narrow tip with full length
aileron)?

Thanks,
