Rolled out on the grass. Notice the tail wheel is still there. I left it in due to not having the stacks of cash to hold the nose down.

To make our backs happy and life 1000% easier we tilted the fuselage. Notice I used my monowheel trailer as a jig. A tow strap 4" wide was used in the rear to hold the tail. This was rock solid.

Port side after layups and peel ply removed. Notice shape of hole for the angle of the LG socket. I wrapped the LG socket with sandpaper and used it to form the hole.

Port side peel ply removed. Oh notice the caps in the sockets. What I did was take a block of foam and push it down in the socket, then took it back out and covered it with car wax. Once all the ribs are in I'll see how it worked.
