Brief Description: Exposed more problems in MLG area.
Removed cover skins from right landing gear openings. Found enlarged loles and inferior previous repairs on both sides. Proper repair will entail removal of several large skin sections. Discussed with Bill. Fuselage can only stay in jig about another weeek, not enough time to make full repairs.
I will continue removing parts until we can ascertain if there are other problems. Need to be very careful about not enlarging AD5 rivet holes. After two oher airplanes are finished using the jig we will put the 120 back in there and do all structural repairs, including raising the left aft wing spar attach point to stariagthen the airframe. This will most likely be in the spring of 2014.
In the meantime we will complete the wings and motor work over the winter.
