A threaded pin in the tie down hole would be used to locate the jack pad. The 12"x6" pad itself would be located spanwise directly under the main spar and it would be able to pivot where it attaches to the hydraulic jack. When the wings are removed, it would be a simple matter to use the stubwing outboard main spar hole as the attach point. Does this sound like a reasonable solution to getting the plane off the ground?
