Chapter 13 - Nose and nose gear - Part 7

Today I assembled the whole nose gear mess. Everthing went together pretty easily.


One little snag though. The strut should be straight down the middle between the NG-30s. After bolting it all together it was sitting a little to one side. The strut is bolted to the NG-6A pivot and is a loose fit. Flox is used to bond the strut and there is a little play before the flox cures so I have clamped the strut to one side to pull it over while the flox cures to try and ensure it is right down the middle. We will see tomorrow if all is well.
