NEXT27 Dec 2004: Out with the old.In with the New (in a couple weeks)LEFT - The original LongEZ fixed gear has been removed. Its starting to look better already!CNTR - Doing an aileron role in the barn. Both ends are supported from hoists in the ceiling, one person 5 minutes to roll it over. Wish I had this setup when I originally built the EZ.RIGHT - Sanding down to glass, areas that will get gear doors, etc.25 Dec 2004: MERRY CHRISTMAS.Nose gear installed, working on mains.LEFT - Installing the Nose Lift kit. The instructions are very good, and the kit is complete (except for the part I lost in the snow, We'll find it in April when the snow melts). Thanks JackI'll use the Nose lift switches as the main interface, the infinity will be connected to the nose switching via a latching relay.CENTER/RIGHT - This is a before/after of the center spar section. The center spar is now ready for the structural reinforcement that will support the gear. The Infinity instructions are very good on how to modify this section. Note the light installed in the center spar, makes working a lot easier. HINT: I bought the smallest palm sander I could find, made this job a lot easier.18 Dec 2004: Out with the old, In with the new (later)1 and 2) Radios removed, Garmin 250XL sent off for firmware updates. Will be installing a Dynon EFIS, also switches to support gear, aux battery, a Jeff Rose and E-Mag Ignition system3) Side consoles removed to allow running wire, plumbing for gear, ignition, etc.4) Look Mom, no cheeks. moving the sumps inboard to get rid of the cheeks11 Dec 2004: WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE?The left photo shows the LongEZ right main landing gear attach point nut has almost completely unthreaded. You can see the bearing has been sliding out of the fuselage support bracket. The center photo shows the right attach bolt is sliding forward, also with the bearing. The right photo show the left attach bolt and nut tight as it should be.I'll look at the original assembly photos and see if I can determine if the right nut was correctly tightened during assembly.WaiterWaiters GPS Set Time program.
