Bob Pastusek helped a great deal with setting up the gear retraction mechanism. Installed both hydraulic actuators for the main gear and nose gear. Rigged retraction mechanism. Filled reservior with Mil 5606 hydraulic fluid. Pressurized tank with air to prime the hand pump. Pump relay chatters...rewired relay to take power from the cockpit side of the pump breaker rather than at the pump side. This fixed the chattering problem.
Rigged nose gear actuator. Fabricated and adjusted nose gear door retraction mechanism. Alll three gear and the nose wheel gear door operate perfectly.
