I talked with Kolb today about the alignment and shims and they don=92t think that would work as Cessna landing gear and axels are different than the Kolb. They also gave me some more things to check and said basically to take my time and get used to the Kolb and it=92s lack of weight compared to GA and two the Interstate, which is what I got my tail dragger endorsement in and what my IP flys, one of among his 5 other planes (must be nice).
