Brief Description:  Cut Bottom Skin for Right Main Gear

I traced the full size diagram of the main gear cutouts for the forward bottom skin onto a sheet of paper and then actually cutout the area for the main gear. This template was then clecoed to the corner of the bottom skin. I then used a #30 drill followed by a step drill to begin the cutout in the skin. I used a hand nibbler to remove the majority of the material and then the dremel tool with a sanding drum to bring the cutout to its final shape.
