The Adele Clamps arrived today for the brake lines on the gear legs. I put them on one side to see how they looked. After I put them on, I wasn't really happy with the way they looked or they way they exposed the lines to the air stream. They also have the potential for snagging anything sticking up when landing off airport. This is the accepted way of doing it but I'm not loving it.
So, I came up with an alternative way to do this. Using some discarded rubber fuel tubing, I cut some small pieces and slit them lengthwise so I could slip them over the brake line. Then I used some Grip Lock Ties to secure them to the legs.
Then in an effort to make them less noticeable and smaller I cut the tubing pieces in half and reinstalled them on the legs. I ended up with enough to do the entire leg.
