I am looking for any information on the mounting of TO-220 and TO-247 as
surface mount parts.  An additional complication is that these parts dissipate
a significant amount of heat, in the range of 4-10 Watts, and do to minimal 
airflow over the parts, must therefore be mounted directly onto a cold plate.
This means that the part body will be mounted on the cold plate but the leads
will be gull-wing formed and soldered to a pwb.  See below for a real poor 
depiction of problem.

Has anyone else been faced with this situation and if so how was it overcome?

Thanks for your suggestions in advance.
