And does the deplaning link actually operate? Does the wheel axle pivot with respect to the lower strut when the gear retracts?
Matt I'm willing to bet it's for looks and not functional. That thing would be a liability on a model. If you lose one on the real one ....whoooo weeeee ( insert Indiana jones short stuff voice ). Hang on lady you going for a ride. Probably not optimum at our scale of operation.....but who knows SM makes some pretty fancy gear these days.
