I am faced with leaking aft fuselage statics. Repairing them is going
to be a problem as I am not 18inches tall, which is the max heights for
getting back into the fuselage.

I recall reading an illustrated article several years ago about
installing aft fuselage statics in a glider that had none. That article
may have some information that would be of help to me in fixing this
glider.

Does anyone remember that article? It may have come from a vario
manufacture but I have Googled several combinations of the subject and
not found anything useful.

Anyone have some helpful information?

IIRC it was a Wil Schuman article. May have been in one of the Soaring
Symposia writeups. I believe at least some of them are available on
line. Don't have the URL to hand.
