They are only about 18 inches out from the centerline and more importantly, they are close enough to cause possible interference with normal operation of the inboard gear doors. Instead of using the 1/4" holes I made at the cockpit closeout rib location, I'm planning to use the holes at the wing tiedown points for jacking the plane off its gear. Have any of you tried this with success? Is there a reason why this should not be done?
