Neat experience
Listers,
I went flying today, but that is not what I want to bring to your attention.
While flying was great, and I hit the 290 hour mark, still not what I wanted to let you know.
Curious?
OK. A

Re: How do you jack up the plane to do maintenance?
Sorry guys the H's, N's, A's, and R's didn't stay where I put them in the original text so they didn't help. I will try to get a few pics when I get a chance. That may take awhile.Bruce

Re: How do you jack up the plane to do maintenance?

fabricated it this morning took a couple of hours. I

Re: How do you jack up the plane to do maintenance?
Sam's method works on my Tri Q. Just have the styrofoam covered wood about 3' outboard of the fuselage and the main wheel on that side will lift. Works on both Sam:-)

Re: How do you jack up the plane to do maintenance?
I made up a styro foam pad which is glued to a thick chunk of plywood. It
conforms to the underside of the canard just inboard of the wheelpants. I
use an automotive shop type floor jack. I've used it

Re: How do you jack up the plane to do maintenance?
On my tricycle, I use a piece of 2x4 lumber that is cut to match the airfoil shape about a foot from the wheel (different piece for each side). Place a jack under the wood and the upward force wedges

Hey Jon,
In Q-talk 146 - Mike Evans showed how he built some jack
