He said he didn't know of a 235 with the oleo strut that didn't require it. Well, I though I had achieved something special as I had manually raised my nose gear and my door shut completely without the bubble in it. But-----now that I have jacked the plane up and run the system up and down to get all the air out, under power, the nose gear doesn't go up as far and the door won't close all the way!!!! It hits the tire. I'm planning on investigating to see why the difference but it looks like I, too, will have the bubble! I also noticed that if you have too much air in the main tires, that the tires will hit the inner gear door brackets.
