How about LPS3? Not sure it's appropriate, as it drys to a waxy finish.

Now Marc, don't be nasty .... :-) Yes, I caught that too, and got a chuckle out of it. The fuel in your tank lasts forever too, if you keep filling it up.

Well, yeah, sort of .... As I read about the device, it's for a single airspeed, and perhaps for a single purpose. I'd prefer having the option of multiple controls, possibly for multiple airspeeds. N

Just thinking about this issue causes me to consider solutions. Yeah, I do that. I'm also a software architect / engineer. Makes for interesting thoughts. For the electric speed brake actuator, perhap

Well joe, I just might have to dig out the specs. I seem to recall the West Tg to be somewhat higher than that, in the Gougen specs. Regardless, I agree with you. When making parts, use the best epoxy
