Vampire,

I'm glad you weren't offended, I did not mean to impune your building skill or experience. You are also correct in that the info is both useful and accurate. No matter how hard I try to convince myself I don't NEED to reinforce the landing mounts, I find myself tempted to remove the gear tonight and inject some epoxy around the joints (I am not up to cutting open a new plane - sob). I also agree that CA on ply isn't a great bond, in fact, the ply joints in the RB are the first joints I tried to use only CA for and ended up using epoxy for several critical joints (of course the firewall is all epoxy).

Thanks again for all the great building info, if nothing else, my failure to reinforce the area may in fact prove beyond any doubt that the design is at fault...
