ALTERNATE TECHNIQUE

Velcro may be used in place of elastic cords. Velcro will not damage the plane and is much safer. It is the preferred securing technique.

Hook, Velcro 8515-00-926-4931 Yards Pile, Velcro 8515-00-926-4930 Yards The following patterns (Figure 2-92 through Figure 2-99) include all seam allowances. All hardware, straps and pockets shall be sewn to their respective sides before to the three layers being sewn together. Sew the three layers together with the cover inside out. Three sides shall be sewn and then the cover righted and the last side sewn closed, in a manner that will not leave any raw edges exposed.

NOTE

• All three layers must be caught by the stitching in order to keep the padding from shifting.

• Deviations from design are allowed as long as padding requirements are maintained.

12-INCH LENGTH OF NYLON WEBBING FOLDED IN HALF TO FORM A LOOP.

LENGTH OF NYLON WEBBING SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO GO UNDERNEATH BELLY

OF PLANE AND MEET STRAP FROM OTHER COVER. ONE STRAP WILL HAVE THE

PILE SIDE OF THE VELCRO AND THE OTHER STRAP WILL HAVE LOOP SIDE OF THE

VELCRO. 18 TO 24 INCHES OF CONNECTED VELCRO IS REQUIRED TO SECURE

BOTH COVERS TOGETHER.

LENGTH OF NYLON WEBBING SHOULD BE ENOUGH TO GO UNDERNEATH WING,

THROUGH THE LOOP FORMED BY , THEN FOLD VELCRO BACK ON TO ITSELF.

THE LOOP SIDE OF THE VELCRO WILL BE SEWN TO THE WEBBING SECTION
