Default Focus hinging

Radio South CA hinges on my Focus, even had a midair with a sport plane last fall and didn't evn know it as it still flew fine at landing noticed that 2 places on the wing had been cut, one place had a slice about 7" long not all the way though the wing, the other was at the leading edge about 1 1/2 slot about 4" into the wing completely gone, I'd say if that doesn't make hinges come loose, there probably safe, oh and I was flying the FAI P03 pattern all last fall.

Default Great Planes Hinges

Using them on my Focus. I've used GP on many planes and have worked very well for me. No midairs to test, though!
