The LIVP which won top honors at Arlington and third at Oshkosh this yr. has
Glassinge cowl attachments  with an allen head bolt silver soldered onto the
hinge pin - mated to a nut embedded in the cowl.  The fiberglass piano hinge
can  be bonded into the cowl  with Hysol and a couple rivets or screws at
either end (only if you're nervous about the bond strength).  Carbinge
(graphite piano hinge) is available also - costs more - weighs less.

Very nice application.

That airplane was built by Gene and Mike  McBrayer and is a work of art.


Regards,
John Barrett
