Hey - The last few landings, I have felt a shimmy on landing when my nose gear came down (somewhere around 30 kts or so). So, I have a couple of quick, and hopefully not too dumb questions on checking the breakout force for the front gear on my 7A.
1) What is the best way to get the nose up in the air so I can check the breakout force? I am assuming that the fastest way would be to have someone push down the tail (I'm assuming that putting a bag or 2 of sand on the HS might be helpful). Is there a good way to do this if you are alone?
2) I don't have my plans at home, but I can't remember where you attach the fish scale to the front fork to measure the breakout.
Thanks,
Jason
