[NSRCA-discussion] Fwd: Hatch Latch

[Bill Glaze]

It surely is the voice of experience, Bob.  I first realized this when I was 
looking over Lonnie Martin's Prophecy,  with which he had won Masters at 
Muncie.  I noticed a fine webbing of cracks around the stabilizer, and some 
other hairline cracks that showed very faintly in the glass fuselage.  Shows 
that all kind of stressing happens.
