Brief Description:  Attach landing gear

After prepping and priming the gear attach wells and hardware, I maneuvered each leg into position, and bolted them to the fuselage, right side first. Doing this job by yourself requires a bit of finagling, but I proved it can certainly can be done this way. Attaching the gear seems to be fairly straightforward, and it's certainly about the most rewarding thing I've done on the airplane in a while.

I hand-tightened all the nuts, and I'll final-torque them tomorrow.
