Didn't Tony <br>Stillman's Excellence have wing-mounted landing gear and didn't his <br>wing fail through the landing gear area?<br><br>When I e-mailed John Fuqua about this, he told me that I might want <br>to look at the Impact gear install system. "Basically one 360 former <br>in the fuse with a second 1/2 former next to it with the landing gear <br>plate between the two. Former was made out of carbon faced ply. Cut <br>a slot in th fuse for the gear to slide into and on the gear plate <br>and held with 3 bolts. Very strong.
