RE: Cedar Hobbies has a B-52 coming soon.
I don't see a problem with the "oversize" engine pods. The late upgraded series have large diameter trubo-fans and therefore much larger pods than the original engines.
Regards the landing gear, I don't believe there was any other gear config than the crosswind gear, 4 sets of two, the B-47 did however have a "bicycle" gear. Hard to believe this bird has been in service for more than 50 years. Anyone know when production stopped.
