Is it just me, or does the way the manual says to mount the new style landing
gear hydraulic pump pretty much guarantee a system that will be next to
impossible to maintain?  The way I see it, mounting the pump assembly behind
the aft baggage bulkhead on the passenger side would put the reservoir up
against the fuselage wall, underneath the shoulder harness mounting point,
making it all but impossible to get to.  Where's the best place to mount these
new-style hydraulic pumps?  On the pilot's side (any interference with
controls)?  On the front of the aft baggage bulkhead?  Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Gary
