Well Tim, if I was your Inspector, I'd be looking for a Steel plate in or around the cockpit in plain view. If you had an LAA aluminium one present as well I'd certainly admire it for a moment but I don't think I'd be particularly fussed unless it was fastened to some primary structure or hanging of...

It looks ornamental to me as it is Rob but as it's nearly new, is there a Manufacturers warranty? If it is coming away at that part of the leading edge I'd guess that the rest of it might not be very secure either. How was it for balance/ tracking etc or has it picked up a chucky stone while you've ...
