have small holes so they can be located on the
bottom of the fuselage. Note the direction of the
gear door as shown with the narrow end of the
door facing the front of the aircraft.
 2. Repeat Step 1 to install the remaining gear door

bottom of the fuselage. You will need to flex the
gear inward slightly to get it to fit into the slot.
