RE: WACO YMF
Speaking of landing gear, I made most of the mod to my 1/5 PICA/WB/AMA WACO main gear mounting area tonight. The main gear I made for Khodges works so good I'm gonna put one on mine. Biggest difference will be that mine will be a 2 piece gear consisting of right and left legs. The 2 piece arrangement allows me to keep all the formers and sheeting as called out in the plans. The gear will be bolted into place before covering much like the stock wire gear is glued in as called for in the plans. If things ever get damaged too much the covering will have to be removed anyway. My Bruce Tharpe Venture 60 sport plane came with a split gear and it holds up just fine. I'll post some pictures of the mod soon.
Yours is looking fine, Ken.
