Place only soft tyhings atop of the strakes such as your ass, not your
knees. Or use a heavy piece of carpet with the knap down on the strake.

If it makes you feel any better I reinforced mine and still recently
noticed the "dents". Just one more thing!

Subject: REFLECTOR: Top door strake dents
Does anyone out there with a top door model, who didn't think ahead and
reinforce the tops of the strakes near the door, have dents from climbing in
and out? I just got my airplane back from the painter, complete with dents
on both sides where he climbed around doing his final polishing. He said
he'd fix them, but I know from past experience that while he'll do a great
job, it could take a year. I'm wondering now if the wait will be worth it if
they are inevitable. I know I'll be careful, but what about everyone else?
Anyone have them and cover them up somehow? Anyone?
