Brief Description:  Front Gear

Finsihed drilling out the final 1/4 inch holes in the outboard wear plates. Removed gear legs and deburred edges
With Deana and Corban's help I flipped the fuselage over and clecoed the F819 aft deck, 810D, 811D, and 812B2 angle in place
My grandson Corban helped with the clecoing and installing the bolts in the F812B angle/control stop. Snugged bolts but did not torque, as they may need to come out to trim stop for elevators
With the help of Corbo, I riveted the aft deck to the upper longerons and F810D spacer

The next step is to rivet the F818D-1 Bellcrank and the rivet call-out was AN470AD3-4 but I did not have any AD-3 with universal head so I countersunk as many other builders have done and used AN426AD3-4 rivets and using a short rivet gun I riveted the bellcrank into place

Installed the F857 Seat Bealt brackets and torqued bolts to 25inch pounds
