Micheal Thanks for the reply

Note the weakness on the bulkheads where they are cut
out.Hoping to overcome this with the .050 gussett.

Wayne had fix which doubled the thickness of the
bulkheads and extended the
doubler 6 inches or so past the corners as well, did
not need to double
skin, think there are pics on the builders site as
well, or on his web site,
if not I can scan some pics I have when I did his
fix

Hi Rebel builders


I have been flying my Elite 752E for a year and have
recently fitted it with Clamar composite amphib
floats.
I have noted some problems with the hard points rear
mount. They were not properly built out by the
original builder.
Can anyone send me pics of reinforced hard points or
fixes for this area. I have taken the bulkheads out
and am rebuilding it with .50 gussetts
and thicker skin .26 2024. At OSH murtec told me
that
most builders were reinforcing the area by double
skinning.
Thanks for the help
