Plane with landing gear top and bottom?
Several years ago I saw plans for a plane that had landing gear on both the top and bottom of the plane. I believe it was called the what'z up (or similar). Does anyone know where I can find plans for a plane like this?
Thanks,
Rob

I don't know if this the plane you are looking for,but there is a Pitts biplane at the Grand Canyon-Valle Airport north of Williams Az. The aircraft has a landing gear mounted to the top of the upper wing and a tailwheel on the top of the rudder. It belongs to the planes of Fame Museum of Chino, Ca. You would never think to see such a great collection of aircraft out in the middle of nowere. It was the first time I ever saw a ME 109 and a P51 setting side by side. This museum holds the overflow of the Planes of Fame in Ca. Go to their website for more infomation. The museum number is 520 635-1000 The manager flys R/C.
I hope this info will be a help to you.

Could you please post the website for the Airport in AZ. Or, did you mean the Planes of Fame website for the operation at Chino Airport?
