I think anyone in the landing gear process would do well to read the recent articleby William Wynn in the latest Broadhead Pietenpol Assoc. newsletter.This year at Broadhead WW began gathering data on weight and balance and gear locationson a variety of Piets. His first article on this subject appears inthe current newsletter and he has some good thoughts on landing gear placement.After having read what he has to say I will be checking out my gear placementon the GN-1 before covering the fuselage.--------Jon Coxwell GN-1 BuilderRecycle and preserve the planetRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Tig welder question
