Default RE: Conversion of CG Piper Cub to Tri Gear???

I forgot to mention that conversion from nose wheel to tail wheel takes about 15 minutes. Remove the nose wheel strut and replace it with a short piece of 5/32 wire to keep the steering stuff in place. Remove and turn around the main gear.

Take proof of the nose wheel version with you to the field because there are going to be some bets placed and you could get a lunch out of it.
