Wheel 'Grumman F8F-Bearcat'
Hello everybody
A friend of mine is urgently looking for a picture of a full size 'Bearcat' wheel. Of special interest is the outside view as this is mostly hidden by the landing gear door. Can anybody help?
Thank you and best regards from Switzerland!

Hi Swissy; I build a custom scale gear for large scale rc models, and I will search my files and see if I can come up with one. Lee Robinson West Palm Beach, FL USA

Good morning no, good afternoon there! I found a pic that might help. It is an in-flight pic with the gear down, so that the oleo is extended and shows about 3/4 of the wheel. I have trouble attaching pics here, so send me a short msg to [email protected] and I can email it to you directly. Lee Robinson

Hi Swissy. Did you get my last reply? I have 3 pics that may be usable. Send me a short note to [email protected], so that I have your direct email. I seem to have difficulty sending pics through the threads!

HELLO, Daniel. Pure trivia, but I have a grandson, Daniel! I see you sent this note on 3/7, and as of today, 3/10, it hasn't arrived. Try posting it on the thread. I have the one Bearcat pic, and 2 Hellcat pics, which seem to show the same wheel. One is a good closeup. Lee

Swissy, The Hellcat pics look terrible. I'll try to recopy them. Try again to send me an email. [email protected]. I just found out that my "1" key at top left of keyboard is not working. Maybe that was the problem. I inserted it from my numeric pad on the right. If it isn't one problem, it's 6 others. I'll have to change this keyboard. Lee

Hello Lee
Thank you for the pictures and sorry for the trouble with the E-Mail! Can't understand why my mails don't go through - perhaps somebody thinks they are dangerous stuff - coming from the other side of the pond...
Lets' try it here. My adress is:
[email protected]
I hope the pictures come out bigger if you send them directly to me. Would be great!
Thanks again and best regards from Switzerland, Daniel

I'll try attaching new ones again, but they will probably still be too small here. Give me your mailing address, and I'll send some prints as backup. Lee
