sandpiper Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 If an emergency, some duct tape would get you home. Clear packing tape may also work and wouldn't stand out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opticsguy Posted July 29, 2013 Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 Well, the #8 bolt and a quick washer looks like it will do the trick. Some tape on the bolt to match the size of the hole in the fuselage. I did have to drill out the hole in the door slightly. There is no string so I have to make sure to catch the door.

Roger Lee Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 I think the small screw and nut as a replacement pin should work fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug G. Posted July 30, 2013 Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 I think I would have looked for a proper sized rivet, and glued it in. The cord could then be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Lee Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 The cord can still be used. Just secure it under the bolt head under the lip of the door jam. Just till he gets home it should work fairly well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
