 Does this look right guys?
 Comments?

 Bill, do you have the full swivel nose gear?

Paul,
I have the full swivel gear.

Here is a drawing that I had made of where the mounting holes went, etc. Our
measurements are very close, but not exactly identical

Good work Bill thanks. Does the thrust line intersect water line zero?

Vance, Rich and Bill, Since Tracy's gear box turns the prop the opposite way what do you 
guys think of putting in 1-1/2 degree thrust line off set in... also the opposite way. 
I think Tracy ignored the thrust line offset angle. Tracy did you off set your thrust line?
If not do you notice any strange flight behavior? 

BTW Bill is your shock absorber (damper) long enough for both springs
or must you extend it with a drilled and taped hex extender and threaded rod?
I am thinking of doing a very minor redesign on that system by shortening both
tubes and doing away with the extender. Looks too mickey mouse for me. Possible 
source of failure. I will take it over to Vance and Rich this afternoon and discuss
it with them.
