Just came from my shop as my plane is getting it's annual inspection. My plane is on jacks per the photo. Only the co-pilot side boom is supporting the tail. There is no jack on the other boom. This is my 20th annual inspection with this shop. I have never seen both booms supported. Just my experience but I do not know for certain what the accepted practice is.

FYI, 58 pumps to manually extend the gear.
