Dear EditoR
The Avenger's laser range fnder has no
protective cover For its lenses. So, as you
barrel down the road, any gravel or tree limbs
have a Free shot at the lenses± Soon² an
expensive lens Is damaged and has to be
replaced.
We cracked down on cracked lenses with
a simple piece oF styroFoam± Cut 1-in thick
styroFoam to 12by18 inches. Punch a hole
in it For the boresight guide pin cover± Stick it
in Front oF the range fnder lenses so that the
range fnder support bracket holds it ³n place.

Dear Edito·¸
The tarp used by Avenger crews to protect the canopy From
scratches does more scratching than protecting.
When the crew throws the tarp over the canopy, its metal clamps
scratch the canopy. Soon you can't see through the canopy± There
are currently no replacements.
We scratched scratching by having our canvas shop replace the
clamps with 6¹in velcro strapsº
We thread the straps through
the canopy buckles and the
cover is just as secure as it was
with the clamps.
