Jan 06, 2020     Landing Gear Access Panel Redone - (1 hour)       Category: Wings
I wasn't happy with the location of the access panel for the retraction gearing mechanism. To provide better access to adjust the limit switches, the panel needed to be move back about an inch and a half. So I removed the previously installed supports and made new ones to locate the panel in the better spot. While I was at it I cut and sanded similar supports for the panel on the RH wing. I've taped them together with the panel and put it in the collection of goodies for the RH wing.

Of course, once the glue dries, I'll have to spend a few minutes sanding everything flush with the ribs. Sanding is so much fun.
