Default Jerry Bates p40

Nice plans, good parts fit, and accurate outline. The only big drawback is finding gear that will fit into it. I don't think the Robart gear will work, too big. The plans show Dave Platt retracts which have to be modified in order to rotate. The glass accessories are not spectacular either but are useable. If you can afford it save yourself some headache and get on the list for the new Yellow Aircraft P-40 kit. Unless of course you wanted to do the B/C version in which case the Bates it is! Best of luck whatever you decide.
