I am building a 14, I wish to build a variable height platform to sit the fuselage on.
My question is how high from the ground does the airplane sit when on the gear?
Thanks
Dave

@control, Thanks for pointing out the open canopy height. I hadn't thought of that and wondering if it will fit in my garage. How high does yours open up? Mine should be the same as yours because we're both building tailwheel planes.

Thanks guys for your help, but I did not explain myself fully.
Here is the height I need:
From the ground to the bottom of the fuselage adjacent to the gear leg. Not the nose wheel.
Thanks again, I hope I did better.

I measure about 28 1/4" to the bottom of the fuselage at the gear leg.
