Subject: Pietenpol-List: Jenny style Landing GearMany thanks to Mike, Cliff and Jack for the landing gear advice...that's what I was thinking... that by making the struts tight against the lower longerons that would help distribute loads -- but glad I checked with the Pros on this list.I've been busy, too. Got all the tail feathers finished -- just need to install hinges. Fuselage structure is finished and waiting for landing gear. There's plenty yet to keep me busy, but already looking forward to Brodhead 2006and seeing all the planes and fellow Pieters. Actually I've been looking forward to it since about a day after Brodhead 2005! Many thanks again for the guidance -- you guys are invaluable!
