Thank you to everyone for the replies and help. Hopefully sometime this week the wings will go on, ready for first flight and just wish to check that it all works so that there might be a second flight.
The traveling repair kit needs to be put together as well so thank you for those ideas.
cheers Peter

I jack my aircraft using an ATV jack that can be purchased at a reasonable price with custom made jig that takes the weight of the aircraft on the LG01 frame. A rubber strip ensures no damage is done to the paint.
I have since cut away the front side of the jig to allow room for the cowl flap that I added and the lower cowling can be left in place during jacking. Best to place trestles under the wing to avoid lateral tipping of the aircraft.

I found jacking the aircraft under the wings requires about 20kg to hold the tail down and the underside of the wings are not reinforced like the walkways.

I should make a jig for use when traveling though!

Can you all please re-size the photos that you have posted as they don’t fit in the screen and it’s very hard to follow this thread
