forward of the horizontal stabilizer. With the nose
wheel off the ground, the aircraft can be pivoted
around the main gear as required.
TIE-DOWNS
Built in tie-downs should be used to secure your aircraft unless it is
hangared. Tie-down ropes should be left with some slack to allow for
any rope shrinkage. Manila or hemp ropes should not be used. Chains
can be essentially snug. Chocks for the main gear wheels are also
recommended.
MAIN WHEEL JACKING
The aircraft can have one wheel raised by jacking. A hydraulic jack is
recommended. At this point the wheel may be removed for servicing of
the wheel and/or brake.
CAUTION
Anytime an aircraft is on jacks of any sort,
personnel should not be allowed in or on the
aircraft.
NOSE WHEEL JACKING
The nose wheel may be raised by securing some weight about the aft
fuselage or using the tail tie-down (screw in type only). An alternate
method is to remove the top cowl and attach a hoist to the engine-lifting
ring, then raise the nose as desired (watch the spinner). Again care must
be observed and the caution note above applies.
OUT-OF-SERVICE CARE
Should you be required to place your Lancair in storage, precautions to
protect it from deterioration are recommended. If long-term storage is
required protection from the elements is the primary concern. With the
Lancair, it may be easiest to remove the wings and store it in your
garage where you have (or can provide) some control over temperature
and humidity. In any case, the most susceptible element of your
aircraft is the engine's cylinder walls and bearing surfaces. The engine
should be preserved according to the manufacturer's directions. These
will essentially require it to have desiccant plugs installed and replace
the oil with a preservative oil such as "MIL-L-46002, Grade 1 oil," as
well as plugging the intake and exhaust ports with a desiccant. Again,
refer to the engine manufacturer for detailed instructions.
The airframe will withstand the storage quite well under almost any
circumstances since it is of high temperature materials. However the
