While test fitting the landing gear mount assemblies (WD-1021-L-PC and WD-1021-R-PC) I noticed that the surfaces did not sit right (flat) on the FWD Center Section Bulkhead Assembly (spar). This is especially evident on the right mount. As shown in the attached pictures, the top flange is clamped flat to a straight metal plate and the bottom is on an angle. I tried to twist it to bend it straight but the mount is too strong. If I would bolt it down, I would be deforming the spar. As for the left mount, I needed to shim and grind it down to make it fit. I really believe that these parts should fit well as to not distort the spar and to transfer the landing gear loads evenly.
I wonder if anyone else noticed this problem as well.
