Sir:

One time at American Eagle a frantic gate agent called me to say there
were 60 MPH gusts about the terminal and wanted to know what to do since
the A/C were not tied down.  I told him to put a sand bag on top of the
wing every 4 feet or so, centered over the main spar.  It saved the day.

For right now, if you have this beautiful creature sitting outside with
out a chaperon, what you might want to do is tie the main and tail gear
down and then secure a long lick of foam on top of the main spar of each
wing, until you get this figured out.

Subject: KR> Tiedowns

My KR-2 is finished and waiting for the inspection.  Then, I realized
that I had had a short circuit between the headphones.  I did not
provide for a means of attaching tiedown ropes or for jack points for
lifting the mains off the ground.

Any suggestions how I can tie the bird down without having to open my
virgin wings?
