Ok, I have to vent for real this time. It seems the airplane gods are conspiring against me. The gear leg is still very much stuck in the weldment and doesn't seem to want to move any further out no matter how much effort I put into it. I posted to VAF in hopes that somebody there has a miracle cure but I am running short on hope. To top that off I found out tonight that the Andair fuel valve I ordered from Aircraft Spruce is the wrong one. It has female connectors on it and that makes the new fuel lines I purchased useless. So I have sent an email to AS to see if I can return it but again I am not holding out much hope for any "love". I can order the correct valve from Andair but they are in England so who knows how long it will take to get the new valve. I guess I might as well bring the wings back out into the garage and finish them up....
