I did not make the whole turtle deck removable. I created an access hatch just ahead of the vertical stab. It is simple a portionof the td that is removable. Some screws hold it onto the top longeron. It allows access to the very rear and the panel behind my head was cut to allow access from the front. Paul OReilly KR2 Stretched N7970K Derry, NH

For those that did, have you found it useful? Is it worth carrying that extra weight in the tail to do so? For those who didn't, have you been able to maintain your aircraft without?
