Jim, How did you deal with the uneven step spacing when attaching the pilot to the frame? It appears that the top step on the rotating part of the pilot is equidistant from the bottome step on the frame and the pilot step below it when everything is dead level. Fixing the pilot to the frame without some sort of spacer and filler would make the step spacing between the two much narrower. Ben Trousdale
