Do Wedekind Safety Sleeves work on L`Hotellier ball fittings or another
type?

L'Hotellier fittings but there are several versions so you need to make
sure you get the correct ones.

I called Southern Sailplanes and they directed me to McLean Aviation
who are the DG dealers in the UK (I own a DG-101). I talked with Karen
McLean (very nice and knowledgable lady) and she lined up just what I
needed. 106 British pounds including shipping. Got them in about a
week.

They also sent the all imporant technical node (from DG written by
Klaus Wederkind himself).

TN 301/16 DG-100
TN 323/7 DG-200
TN 826/28 DG-400

The TN states "Instructions can be executed by the owner. Instructions
must be inspected by a licensed inspector and are to be entered in the
aircraft logs." This TN is *NOT* available on the DG site though it is
referenced (along with lots of others).

You can contact McLean at www.mclean-aviation.com. I will report back
after I install the sleeves.

I forgot to mention that the nice folks at McLean also sent me a DG
keyfob, a DG patch and a DG sticker. Ain't I lucky!
