Good evening

I have a feeling that the main gear legs on my XS are slightly out of 
line. I think its due to a couple of hard landings. When I looked at the 
plane (looking at the front from about 8m away) in the hangar today, it 
looks as if its leaning slightly to the right.

I have checked the sockets and the re-inforcing ply in the fuselage and 
all looks to be ok.

My question is, how easy is it to fit new legs? There is a video on 
youtube showing a guy changing one leg. It appears all he does is remove 
the socket bolt, pull out the leg, then insert the new one and replace 
the bolt, job done. Is there any re-alignment of any kind to do?

Any advice would be much appreciated.


Thanks


Arwel
