gear axle fitting is used primarily when the cargo pod is installed and it
is desired to jack a single main gear for tire replacement, etc. If desired,
jack stands with wing jack pads may be fabricated so that the front wing
spar at stations 141.2 or 155.9 on each wing may be used as jacking
locations. A tail jack must be used in conjunction with wing jacking.
