Couple weeks ago carried my main gear and gear legs to London, KY, to let
the Kolb boys do some work on them.

After some hard landings, some extremely hard, a bent a drag strut on the
left main gear. Brother Jim suggested adding a 4130 sheet web to help keep
the braces in column during my klutzy landings. Even after all these years
I still have the ability to screw up pretty badly.

Attached are a few before during and after photos of the gear and a few of
the Kolb Gang.

Brian and Helen met me in Chattanooga, TN, this morning with my new looking
main gear. Thanks to all the guys at Kolb for your help.
