Hello Chuck,

Yes/no. Quite a few months ago (last year?) there was a
note from Europa saying that it was possible for the bushes to
come loose. To stop the rear ones from falling off the spar they
recommended a patch of 2 layers bid, drilling carefully through
after cure.
Sounds like Europa have incorporated that mod into your
(newer) instructions. Just stick a very short bit of dowel in the
hole and lay the bid right over the bush, drilling out after
cure. It helps to peel ply it too.
