Brief Description:  Installed enter/exit rollbar handles.

I've had a couple of Aircraft Extras rollbar handles for a few months and decided that Sunday would be a good time to mount them. I coaxed Charlotte to help me install the canopy so that we could determine where to drill the holes to insure clearance.

I marked the holes 4" to either side of the center where the rollbar support attaches. It's just a matter of drilling four #10 holes all the way through the roll bar and then enlarging the aft side holes to 5/16". You then slip the U shaped handles into the aft holes and insert the countersink #10 screws into the forward holes to screw into the handles' threaded ends. I machine countersunk the rollbar so that the screws were almost flush. Wow! What a difference it makes for entering and exiting the fuselage!
