I'm a new Lancair 320 owner, and went to tie down the aircraft, only to
find the quick release tie down bolts/rings will not lock into place under the wing or tail. <
The reason the quick release tie downs are not being used is as follows:
The quick release pins are designed to be used in sheer. Any bending
moment will break them. Don't use them if you want a good tie down system.
I tapped my tubes that are bonded into the wings and use a screw in eye
bolt.
