The Schleicher web site indicates a transponder antenna should be installed in the landing gear bay. Of course it is in German, but even with Google translate it does not seem to indicate how to snake the antenna cable form the transponder behind the instrument panel to the landing gear bay. Does anyone have a suggestion how to route the cable? I see the various electric and pneumatic lines running forward to the nose and down through the bottom of the fuselage, but it looks very difficult (impossible?) to snake a line though the same location. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

The tech note shows a position that is next to the landing gear box on the right side. The antenna mounting and ground plane are installed through the oxygen cylinder area. This is an easy installation but not as technically perfect as it is if you install on the bottom behind the gear. It also takes about 1/4 of the time to do.
