Default RE: GP GEE BEE

Craig,

The mains are stock, just re-bent so that the center of the wheel is 2" aft of the cg. The nose gear is bolted to two hardwood blocks fastened to the firewall via machine screws and blind nuts. Landing the Gee Bee in the standard tail dragger configuration is not that difficult in normal wind conditions. Its those cross-winds that can bite you. The tri-gear allows me to enjoy the Gee Bee without the worries of the infamous Gee Bee flip. [:@]
