It's a good question and I took this pics on a small airshow some years ago..


I don't think this particular panel are structural, but i'm not sure about the wing panel... I really want to ask this one to Van's because I think it can be a good idea, especially for the aileron bellcrank...

Whats next, lexan cowls, floor panels and bulkheads?
Sorry but if you put it together correctly, and inspect regularly, its uneccessary.
