Retracts for Corsairs Help!
I am planning to install retracts on a Great Planes Combat Corsairs and haven't a clue as to where to start. Can I assume all LG on Corsairs are in the same position?. If anyone can send along an Install guide or LINK from their Corsairs or where to find one on-line I would appreciate it. Im not a Combat guy I just want to fly this plane in a scale like manor in my Park Soccer Fields. Where to start? Where on the main spar? how far from LE. that sort of thing. THanks again.

RE: Retracts for Corsairs Help!
Not good news:
That's what Great Planes says about your Corsair. What that means is the sucker probably isn't designed to take retracts. There won't be wheel wells in the wings, nor space or reinforced support for mechanisms.
Landing Gear: None, this is a belly lander, hand launch aircraft
