Default RE: CMP BF109F BUILDING THREAD

Steve,
Have you done anything on the gear installation? I spent most of the morning building a mockup of the support plate for the gear.It is nestled between the existing forward gear rail and the leading edge.
The scale location of the gear requires that the pivot point of the gear falls in the spanwise center of the rib #2 with the gear forward mounting flange touching the back of the leading edge.
I'm concerned that there is not enough hardwood structure to tie the gear plate to.
Any sujestions you might have would be greatly appreciated.
