Installed the main gear legs, and started installing the control sticks. After installing the gear legs, I noticed that the instructions did not say to install them now--WTH.
| If I'm going to put this thing on it's gear, then I need to make some blocks for the gear legs to sit in. I really don't want to have the threaded feet sitting on the floor. These scrap 2.4's seem about right. |
| You have to lift this thing pretty high in order to get the gear legs on. |
| Ok, the main gear are on. Let's see if they will hold everything (yeah, right, if they don't hold I've got real problems). |
| Gear on. |

| Started installing the control stick assembly. |
| This is why we cut those notches in the F-716 seat ribs. |
