Cut out for NG. Try to make minimum cut's. You can see some stress area's on this fuselage. It had been banged around, moved many times, before I got it. Little dings but easy fixes. Set in Firewall mount. You can see the lines at back, vertical up and down drawn in. These are each side of the wood beam mounts up front. There will be two blind nuts on each side of the beam in the engine compartment. The flange's on the Spring-Aire gear will be wide enough to allow the 632's to screw up to the plate, and flush.

Look at one gear flange, the red marked corner, it will come off, to fit gear to bottom of fuselage for clearance. I don't know how old these Spring-Aire's are, bought them off of e-bay some time ago. All you need is the tank, lines, control valve, some T's, connector's, struts and mainframes of the gears, and you have a set. You can even mix and match other's gears here.

Picture of the wingtips. Recycled. I got them when buying some stuff from a guy down in Ft. Lauderdale. I can strip them, use on the wings. I had a set of elevator's, from the same plane, can't find them, up in the attic in the dungeon area. Try to get the NG set up today, then concentrate on the tank floor, servo board rails, etc. There may be a few of the finished Phoenix 6 picture's in these write's, just to show where it is going.

Added this photo, I want to get the NG mounted. You can hold the NG up with tape, at the mounting flange's. Just reverse sticky masking tape, or 3M/mask tape, double sided, set where you will drill. I may have to move to left or right, but as long as it is on each side of the beam and clearance for drilling mounting holes. It should mount off center, as the NG strut is wound down on one side, vs. into the aluminum block. We want the wheel to sink at center front of belly pan at bulkhead.
Another way to mount these wings, is 4 nylon 1/4-20's and females on each corner.
