Main wheel fairings
Catégorie: Finishing : Landing gear

I begin installing the main x
wheel fairings. First task is to draw a centerline on the top of the fairing. Not as easy as expected, some measuting and eyeballing ot get it right.



Then the brackets are installed and the brake line removed.



First the opening for the for the tyre is increased, then the fairing has to be cut for the gear leg.
Here a picture after the first cut, some more to go. The champagne box on the left is exactly the correct height to support the aft part of the fairing during the adjustment.



Here the right side, before beginning the drilling I have to align the fairing in all the dimensions.
On the picture is also the Chrismas lightning I use to light the interior of the fairing so as to see the brackets and the holes.
