Matt, It is very easy to make the stock Organic hook adjustable. Where you currently have holes drilled for the machine screws just make a slot in the bottom of the fuse. The inner piece of the tow hook is wide enough to carry the loads as is the fuselage bottom. I have been using this method for years with the standard tow hooks that mount in a blind not that is glued in a plywood carrier in the fuse.
See Ya, Pat McCleave Wichita, KS Ps, I first heard of this method from Ed Slegers. ----- Original Message ----- From: Matt Fair <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, January 26, 2002 4:40 PM Subject: [RCSE] re: adjustable towhook > I have an organic with the same tow hook and it isnt > very adjustable, but it is strong and light.
