We had the Cessna pads on the wings and the stayed installed. We had 2 under hoist safety stands from harbor freight that the tail boom would just sit on. When they are on jacks there is only about 50 lbs of weight on the tail stands. There is a third jack point just behind the nose gear door and you really must put a short jack there or it’s very easy for the plane to nose over if you look at Ed Coffman’s post and zoom in you can see the tail stands and the nose jack

I also took this pic today. It's the best I can do as I have a feeling if I go visit the shop tomorrow, the plane will be back on it's own "feet" by then. Hope this helps.

From what I have seen here, there appear to be two versions of jack adapter locations. One on the aft spar web and the other just after the spare cap about one rivet hole spacing back, as in the original photo that started this thread. I have a '78 H model and my jack point is just behind the front spar. There are words either in the POH or maintenance manual on what jack adapter to use on my plane. I memory serves me correctly, Cessna gives either a description of how to make the jack adapters. Should be 4"X4" pads with rubber/silicone type barrier between it and the wing, that will spread out the load properly. I have attached an image of mine. As one can see from the picture, my mount hole is just behind the double row of rivets on the lower spar cap, it came from Cessna that way.

Cessna P/N 1400110-2 is what we had on our 6 Skymasters.

OK, I see how it is setup now. I did not see the smaller jack on the front of the aircraft. I plan to go down to the hanger tomorrow and I will check under the nose of the aircraft.
Thanks for the picture, they help. Karl |
