Hey all,

I've got a question about the extent of finishing the stub wing gear
area.  I've got the plane inverted and am going to close out the outer
wings over the next week or two.  While I have the plane inverted over
the next few months while I finish the wing tips, flaps, ailerons, and
the bottom surface areas, I was wondering to what extent I should finish
the gear wells.  I have almost all of the hardware out of the gear wells
and am thinking about how much finish work I should do.  Would it make
sense to finish it all to the point of primer before I revert the
plane?  I won't have to invert the plane again in the build process, so
I was thinking that it would be easier to finish out this area now
instead of on my back later.

What say all you LNC2 builders from your experience?
