From this month's EAA SportAviation:

"Van's has reworked the canopy and cowl connections to reduce those problems."

The problems referred to were the usual complaints about the piano hinge cowl attachment method which I personally consider to be one of the worst things about my RV-6. Has anyone seen any details on how they were reworked?
 
maybe they are adding more piano hinge :) hahahahaha

maybe some violin hinge or even cello hinge, i hear that works better than piano hinge.

There was no changes made...I don't know where the writer got that info.
 
Fact VS Fiction!

Isn't it interesting how much stuff is presented on the form as fact but in reality its totally fiction or should I politely say in-actuate! As well as in Magazines to.:eek:
