It's all relative, I guess, Martinn. Finished up the wheel well. This is what I have been holding back from doing. Now that this is done I can now assemble and paint. Locking hook is 4mm tall. Spring is 4mm also. Thank you for looking and liking. Sincerely, Mark -

Superb detailing, Jay. 'There will be no bond there - too much risk of smearing glue or epoxy or CA on the glass surface.' Try Future as an adhesive. Works for me. Sincerely, Mark- 1,636 replies

Great show, Milo. Love the texturing. Sincerely, Mark -
Martinn, I'm using the Avia walk-around for wheel well details. I hadn't gotten to the wheels until you mentioned them. But what I found is that the as Czech aircraft tires had no camber, the Israeli aircraft retained negative camber. The Israeli caster did not look any different to me than that of a G-10, and the wheel well openings are squared. The aircraft I'm working on is D-117. I have a photo of the wheel well of D-120. 120 was delivered after 117. The 120 wheel well matches a G-10. As there were only 24 aircraft delivered within a 3 month timeframe, I'm confident D-117 shared many landing gear/tire/wheel well characteristics with earlier numbered aircraft. Based on those photos, I think I can make the educated guess that D-117's wheel well/tires/landing gear would match up. Tires seem to differ. They certainly are not shaped like the home grown Avia, their tires being noticeably narrower than the G-10/K-4 tire, and with a grooved circumference. There are those with tires as you describe, and tires that appear to be a smooth G-10/K-4 tire. They seem to have a large sidewall bulge but no tread. I can easily replicate this tire by sanding the tread off of the kit wheels. Which, by the way, are the Hasegawa G-10/K-4 tires because the Revell tires were short shot. Anyway, that's my take. Thank you for the heads up, Martinn. Thank you for looking and liking. Sincerely, Mark

Thank you, my Brother. I will check when this aircraft was made. I seem to recall that this aircraft was delivered in the first batch. I know I did some research on the wheel well openings earlier on and came up with open wheel wells. But I will double check both. Thank you. Sincerely, Mark

Love this. There is something about that long fuselage and short wing that I have always found eye catching. Sincerely, Mark
