| Subject: | Re: Can you identify this TR-1 nose gear? |
Keep in mind the problem with the nose gear was actually the main gear plac
ement. The nose gear should have between 10% and 25% of the weight of the a
ircraft from the aft CG to forward CG limits. The main gear in the original
location would put well over 35% onto the main gear.=C2- The main gear s
o far behind the CG would not only put more static load on the nose gear bu
t would also put a huge dynamic load when the nose would slam down on landi
ng.
If you correct the main gear location by canting the gear forward any of th
e nose gears are acceptable.=C2-

Hi,
I would measure out at the end of the wings as well. If one side is off, I would
check the two spar bolts that hold the wing in place. There is a sleeve for
both bolts and if the bolts are over tightened they can go into the composite
and cause a wing to droop.
To our success, Stephen McIntosh
