Mike I never did like suspending all that weight with no part of the tire resting on the floor, ala Komet. JJ My fix was to mount the spare flat on the floor under the fuselage nose. This means I would have to remove the fuselage to get the spare out, but I have only had to change one tire in 35 years. Now, watch me blow a tire next week on my way to Williams! JJ
