How about posting some pics?

I have an Avistar with an Evolution .46 on the nose. It turned out to be a great combination. I got tired of the rubber bands on the wing fiasco so I figured out how to route velcro straps to hold the wing on. Many of the veteran pilots at my field flatly told me it would not workuntil they saw me do it. I am confident that you would break the wing before you could rip it off with the velcro holding it on. These things go on in seconds where it took several minutes to stretch those rubber bands and the velcro does not break while the airplane is sitting in the hot sun. So far I have used this on two different planes and I have yet to find a down side to it.
