Jungmeister landing gear - design, manufacture and installation
Bill LeBrun's Jungmeister's landing gear. Once the plane is ready for wheels, springs will be installed, similar to the system we used to replace the bungee cords on the Acrosport.
Installing Rotec Radial on Jungmeister
Bill LeBrun created the engine mount and then mounted the Rotec Radial on his Jungmeister this winter....a perfect fit!
Jungmeister's fuel tank - Bill's wooden model and Finished welded Aluminum Fuel Tank!
Bill LeBrun's accurate wooden model fuel tank enabled the tank to be fitted with enough ease for fittings and instrument panel. This wooden model was used as the template for the aluminum tank welded by Luc St Mars at AirFab, Winnipeg.
WElded fuel tank - a lot of thought went into figuring out which panel got welded first to reduce risk of warping and so Luc could get at each edge without getting 'cornered'!
