placed gear in position to verify 17 1/2 spacing prior to setting rear gear spar.
Note : during the metal blocks I made the gear spar attach angles per the print on 200 . The detail called widths to be - forward angle 5 1/8 " and Aft angle to be 5". Later on when the rib plates were being made I discovered that the call out on the angle had to be wrong . On print 202 the angles can be scaled for width on the end rib plate detail here they scale at 5 1/8 forward and 4 1/2 aft . - currently making new aft angles.
