So for the last however many months, we have been tinkering away at the Check III due on our C210M, 5Y-BLG. We've recently been doing some landing gear work, so it's been up and down on the jacks, with some gear retractions going on. It's such a funny looking project, I thought I would take some pictures of it up in the air.
Here it is at about 17 inches up in the air...the minimum amount required for the gear to be retracted safely.
Side shot.
Side shot...no legs. It looked like it was going to fly down into the floor. Definitely weird...
I am officially not working in the shop anymore. We are departing Nairobi tomorrow night, so we are feverishly packing and trying to make sure that all things are in order before we leave. It has been a great time here at AIM AIR and I look forward to coming back in January. But now we're looking forward to some good home time with family and friends back in the States. I will update the blog as I see fit...and when I come across some cool airplanes.
See ya'll!!!!
