Default RE: Maj. Woody's Fei Bao L-39

Virgin flight in Sweden for my best friend, he was quite nervous but this baby flies really well! His only problem is retracting the gear, or more the nose gear. There is no way the nose gear actually will retract as it should... We guess this issue is related to the fact that the nosegear retracts forward in flight direction and thereby the preasure from the airtank gets to weak to retract? On ground everything is ok, it´s only in flight this happens.

The movie is from second flight, when the nerves from first flight settled...
