RE: Retracts?
My retracts just arrived from Tower. They are Robart 521W1 Tri-Gear with 5/32" steerable nose gear and 3/16" mains. $139 bucks. I bought them for a 9 pound Duelist Twin I'm building. Those 3/8" oleo struts were tempting but the price was double! I plan to make some folding doors and that should hide the skinny leg look.
They are surprisingly light. I may also put them in a vintage pattern ship at some point if the Duelist meets an untimely end.
Richard, What are yours going into?
