Mark, Make sure you can actuate the handle with your shoulder belts snug. Having them loose for that phase of flight is not good! My fuel shutoff valves are on the forward face of my forward spar and I can just reach them with my belts snug. I'd still suggest you consider the foam board. http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/flesner/19.jpg (speed brake) http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/flesner/17.jpg (C-150 flap motor used to actuate) Larry Flesner
