On my slow build 6A is it a stupid move on my part to attempt to install the gear mounts on the fuselage using a dummy wing spar or play it safe and mount the wings while the fuselage is still upside down in the jig. My building space is very limited but with a lot of effort and planning it could be done, I think. I have seen the dummy spar method done on some of the RV web sites and wondered if trying it would lead me down the wrong path. I have wood working experience and building a duplicate spar out of wood would not be a problem. Has anyone encountered any problems doing it this way. I don't want to take a chance screwing up my whole project if this is not an accepted method.
