    Short version ... cable ties :p I secured the pivot arm with one , & the end of the bungee with another , then pulled it tight & cable tied it off . I had already crimped one half so was ok to finish when secured . Another pair of hands would help greatly doing the remaining three bungees! Cheers Troy Rep.

    I spoke to the friendly team at Airborne & they said either cable ties or crimps were fine . Since I was ordering some parts anyway I got the crimps :-) It took a while to work out how to lace the bungy , but I have it sorted now . The previous repair had used two hose clamps ! Seemed to work well though ... but I will stick with approved methods Cheers

    To replace or not to replace , that is the question . I have an Airborne Edge Outback 582 & although the hours are low , and it's been stored in a hangar , It has sat for years. It doesn't seem to me that the shock cord is as tight as those who share the hangar ... so Just replace & be done with it, or retighten & reattach ? Crimps or cable ties ? Any suggestions , tips or tricks greatly appreciated . Cheers Troy Rep.

    The lack of alternate for Perth may be the best argument for the expansion of Busselton to International standards .

    Interesting thread . Every time I get really bored I consider something like this Affordaplane Aircraft Light Sport Aircraft as a project for when it's too windy to fly microlights ;p
