Where the rubber meets the ground...

This is where I will make periodic entries regarding the build progress of my kit. I will post photos, and discuss work completed or problems encountered.

Where the rubber meets the ground...

Post by MikeFairbanks »

I went with the Alaska Bushwheel 29" Airstreak tires, T3 tail spring, and Baby Bushwheel tailwheel from Airframes Alaska. Rather than pay shipping costs from Alaska to Idaho, then back to Alaska, I just purchased them locally.

My Beringer wheels finally showed up, so I got the tires mounted up, inflated to 9 psi, and ready to put on the plane. I need to get the correct bolts etc. to mount the Beringer axle and brakes to the gear legs.
