still no kits for this vintage plane?

Is there any company who have plans to build it as a kit?

Status: offline 		Agree 100%, this is an absolutely gorgeous plane. It was love at first sight when I saw the one in Blue Angels livery at the museum in Long Island!

I suspect that one reason it has not been tackled is the landing gear .. it's quite narrow-track, and appears to have a very complex retracting method. I'd love to see any info on plans or kits, or ...

I see from Wikipedia that this plane was the first plane to shoot itself down with its own guns!

There is a scratch project for a 90mm edf (NICELY DONE!) over at: www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1376442
Got the lancing gear down pat and looks really nice.
Don't know if he plans on selling plans or not, but worth a look.

I'm sure Likai of Skymasterjet would make it with no problems!

Even the F-104 has a complex type of gear:

Status: offline 		It seems to me that the F-11 main gear retract similarly to the F-16 and we all know there is no shortage of F-16 models.
