<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi Steve -<BR> I replaced my Eclipse aluminum
gear w/ the ES about 75 flights ago. The size and shape are almost
identical to the Eclipse. The weight savings was closer to 3oz
total. The alum gear was 6oz for both legs vs about 3oz for the
ES. It has held up just fine, and actually seems to be easier on the
gear mount and fuse since it absorbs some landing "stress" rather than
transmit the stress directly to the gear mount like the alum gear did.
I'm ordering another set for my Eclipse #2<BR>Chris<BR><BR>Steve & Cindy

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have a Fantasy plane that has the original
aluminum gear on it. I am thinking of installing the ES Composites CF
landing gear on it. The ES gear is some 1+ oz lighter and does not
have the sweep back making it easier to retrofit on the Fantasy. My
other Eclipse has Bolly gear on it.</FONT></DIV>
