3. Prepare a 5/64-inch (2mm) drill bit by wrapping

a piece of low-tack tape around the drill bit 5/8-

top of the wing. Place the drill bit in a drill.

4. Use the drill and drill bit prepared in the

previous step to drill the four holes for the landing

gear block or retract mechanism mounting screws.

5. Remove the landing gear block or retract

mechanism from the wing. Use a #1 Phillips

screwdriver to thread a 3mm x 14mm countersunk

self-tapping screw in each hole to cut threads into

the landing gear rails. Remove the screws after

threading the holes.
