To all my 6A brothers out there, would it be acceptable to install the gear on a wingless plane using short wooden faux spars to get the engine mounted and to generally move it around and then transport to the airport. I'm thinking of using maybe 50% of the bolts ( temporary HomeDepot stuff) and then after transporting to the airport, setting the whole fuselage in a support cradle to pull out the wood and install the wings with the permanent AN bolts. Has anyone attempted this and if you did was there any possibility of serious damage to the spar sockets? Really getting jealous of those 7A guys. Any advice would be appreciated.
