Here's a crazy-making game to sharpen your situational awareness while
stuck in the shop.
"It is said"... that Air Force pilots can keep the game going for two
minutes, but 18 seconds is quite respectable.

Bob,
Sorry for not answering sooner. Been out hunting and visiting my brother in
Fla. As for the Article on my fix for making the installation of the main
gear legs, I had Gary Boothe from Calif. send it to you. I didn't send it
myself. I haven't mastered copying actual pages and then sending them out as
a file. Gary was kind enough to do that for me. He sent them to you and
several other folks at my request. If I remember correctly is was Issue # 96
of the Zenair Newsletter back in 1996. Please contact Gary at
gboothe(at)calply.com I'm sure he will be glad to send it to you again - you
can mention that I suggested you contact him. The process I used was simply
attaching some nutplates ( which line up with the holes in the steel gear
fittings ) to aluminun strips ( with flush 3/32" rivets ) and then riveting
the strips with a couple of flush rivets to the vertical landing gear
supports. This has come in handy while modifying the main gear and replacing
the bungees.

Thanks again, Jim. I do remember him sending that info, but darned if
I can find it. I don't have room enough to put nut plates on the
vertical landing gear supports, but your idea sounds like it would
work. And I've got a way that I think will work easily to compress
the bungees, so i won't need to bug Gary again. And hey, by the way,
I'm still just two or three months from being finished! Am working
on some headrests, which seem to be very important for safety in a
crash according to one of the seminars I attended at Sun'nFun, as they
prevent the whiplash that apparently causes most of the severe neck
injuries in crashes. Then it's wiring, and installling the landing
gear that is being welded in a shop here. So maybe this thing
actually will fly one of these days before I'm to senile to follow a
checklist.
I hope you had a good hunt,
Bob
