Fred,

If you grind away as much of the flox as you can and carefully heat up the
bolt, it will come out if you want to stick to the manual procedure.

Subject: Europa-List: Locating CS14 brackets


I am in the process of "Mounting quick-connect bellcrank brackets in cockpit
module".

I note on p.14-5, Step 10, a requirement for utilising the W16 bellcrank
pivot holes in the spars...on p. 14-4 the manual mentions removing the W16
bolts "as you'll need the holes when jigging up for the brackets to support
the fuselage mounted quick-connect bellcranks".

Unfortunately, way back on p. 8-11, my manual calls for the counterbored
holes for said bolts to be filled with flox over the heads of the
bolts...consequently, I cannot remove them.

I've since learned from Roger @ E04 that the manual has been revised to
alert builders of the need to defer floxing in the W16 bolts until much
later.

Tentatively, I'm thinking to get a short length of tubing and thread it to
receive the W16 bolts and then using this as a coupling to the 1/4" 
threaded rod which the manual calls for to be check-nutted to the CS14
bracket...hopefully, when this is all threaded together it will signify that
the CS14 bracket is in its proper location.

I'm wondering if others have faced and dealt with this situation and would
appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks much...Fred A194
