Just a warning....
I used the cradle design published by Europa Lakeland which uses four bolts
to suspend the aircraft. This worked fine for a long time, then on Saturday
I noticed that the aft support had given way and had torn the bolts up
through the fuselage for around an inch and a half. I don't know when the
damage actually occurred but it was probably related to setting up the flaps
when I had more weight in the aircraft than ever before.
I have now removed the original rear supports and made a new structure to
the aft of the aircraft which will allow me to support the fuselage in more
places and distribute the load.
