With no knowledge at all to guide me, can someone close to this level of repair (replacement of pickle forks) please explain, in brief, how it would be done.
In my mind I see the entire fuselage being lifted off the wing, just to provide enough access.
Or, can you get the pickle forks in through the hold?
Splitting off the rear fuselage section seems, in my mind, to be totally unachievable in 3 weeks.
And, aren't there both front and rear pickle forks?
