Well here's the promised update - test fitting the main gear! I finally was able to drill the holes in the resin base at the correct angle and use an old drill bit as a small alingment pin! Next up: gear doors mounted and the starboard side retraction linkage attached to the main oleo!

Finally, after three years she is up on her own legs and holding out well!!

I have finally got the main gear alignment problems sorted - and I have laid down a nice clear coat in preparation for weathering! I discovered Gunze GX100 Super Clear III cut at 50/50 together with Mr. Color Leveling Thinner. Beautiful products to use! Standby for more updates!

Cheers
