Brief Description:  Retrimmed Skin around Gear Legs

I looked at the clearance between the gear legs and the skin/firewall and determined that, with the flexing of the gear, more material had to be removed. In order to do this, the gear legs would have to come off. Jeff showed up and offered to help lift the fuselage onto a sawhorse while I pulled the legs out. I used the Dremel cutter to remove more material from each side. I cleaned up the edges of the skins. Jeff lifted the fuselage up and I reinserted the gear legs.
The right gear was jacked up and the wheel removed. The mounting flanges were installed and the wheel fairing mount was bolted in place.
