I have seen many planes with a red (plastic?) ball in the site tube. I am starting to work on my site tube and want to hear more about what I need also. Please chime in. I am at work today but the site is iced in and I don't think workers will show soooo. I have my Aircraft Spruce book and can look up the items to select for my order. Put in about 6 hours of construction time on my plane yesterday. (Finally)
