A comment on drilling the bolts, if you do choose to. I found that it was
far easier if using a cutting lubricant - brand I use is Rocol (ROC53020
RTD). I found this out when drilling my bolts, and have since used the
compound whenever I drill metal, and it is far, far easier. One tube also
goes a long way.

Chris,
Buy the drilled head AN bolts and save the aggravation.
AAE antennas: I have installed many. I put them in the vertical fin and
have put them on the stern post as well as just behind the baggage bay. All
have worked well.
Don't cut the AAE or anything, they work right out of the box.
Technique, if putting on the aft side of the stern post, and cutting a hole
into the post for the coil, make sure the rudder clears.
Personally I put them on the inboard skin of the port side of the fin and
simply cut a notch in the ribs to clear the antenna. Run the coax through
a couple of grommets and leave it alone after glue up. Since the antenna
doesn't fail, but anything can, a simple access hole in the fin can provide
access or I just will cut a hole (premarked for the client if necessary)
between the mid and top rib and reach in and unplug the coax connector if
for some reason my BNC connector failed.

Dear forum members,
My mono landing gear swing arm is done and I wanted to install it in the
airplane. Looking at the manual I see the part about drilling the bolt
heads. Yikes! That is something I really don't look forward to doing, with
images in my brain of breaking tiny drill bits and having to order more
bolts, etc.
Does anyone remember if that was a pain to do, with a multitude of broken
and stuck drill bits and the like? or are the bolts actually soft and not a
big deal to drill?
Not to gripe but I really wonder why couldn't Europa supply pre-drilled
bolts with the kits [Evil or Very Mad]
Chris
