H! Carl 

Yes that is the pin but mine is an Avdel Pin with the expanding balls to 
retain it in place. So I guess you are OK but it for sure would be very 
difficult rigging on your own , for my money I would do as Neville has 
recommended soonest.

Do you mean the main starboard pin that goes behind the seat cushion? My 
pin has a double lock on it to totally prevent it coming loose, 
presumably this is ok without the part? I recently derigged and rigged 
with no real issues, despite part not being in place.

Hi! Carl

It is the receptacle can for the port spar and should be reduxed to the 
rear of the starboard seat back/tank forward bulk head.

It is damaging the ruder cable in the present location. And was probably 
knocked off by misdirected assembly.

If it is not in position between both spars it will allow the starboard 
pin to be end loose, and therefore IMHO it is a critical part.

I recently advised putting leading ramps on to this item to safly guide 
the port spar into the can rather than thumping it off.

It also occurres to me to say that one of your fuel pipes isn=99t 
pushed right home under the clip?

My engineer just found this floating around in the belly of the 
aircraft, he was quite worried it could get entangled somewhere and jam 
a control.


The question is. What is it?  Did it do something important?


Thanks,
