REFLECTOR: Nose gear shimmy

[Gary Stull]

My fairing is removeable, I built it that way. The fairing is, or was, 
attached with screws on the leading edge. There have been previous posts 
about a replacement bushing that won't compress in the center causing fore 
and aft slop. I don't believe that this slop will cause shimmy, mine has 
considerable play also with no shimmy.
