Default RE: Bridi Super Kaos Build

While I have seen a few Super Kaos models with retractable landing gear, I'm not convinced that Mr. Bridi designed this model to incorporate retracts, in spite of the marketing hype saying that it was. You all know how marketing types are...(smile)

As far as I know, Joe is still alive and kicking. It would be nice if he would comment on this topic.

Actually, the Super Kaos was fully-intended to accomodate retractable landing gear. The RCM article had pictures of Joe Bridi holding the model and showing off the retracts. The article also described his resoning behind the design of the airplane, and how it differed from the Kaos. Retracts were part of it.


So...

Now I have to ask.. Anyone have a copy of this article on pdf they could send me or set up on www.4share.com ?

Also, this thread has become very helpful and I want to thank everyone that is pitching in here.
