Question Exact Measurements
Anyone have the EXACT measurements of gear (outside of tire to outside of tire) on a tailwheel '6 and measurement of widest part of fuse (bottom skins that screw to wings)?
Measurement of tailwheel to prop flange on 0-320?
I'm trying to decide if it's feasible to bring an unfinished kit fuselage home to my one car garage to be able to do some work over the winter. Need to finish fitting cowling, and interior/panel work.
Thanks in advance.

Thumbs up Thanks A Bunch
Responses much appreciated.
I'd like to just stash it in there for the winter so I can get a few things finished up, such as cowling, panel work, and possibly the 'almost 14' setup from Alan.
Glad to hear there are others actually building in a single-plane hangar.
Thanks again.
