There is movement on this but it's the slow & painstaking scratch-build construction of a "Catalina"-style main-gear system.

So far pretty happy with the results but still a fair way to go.

I might do photo's tomorrow, if I get the chance, just to give you a sneak preview.

:thumbsup:

My Turbo-Prop Sunderland Amphibian water-bomber is suffering the same fate Guy, I've got one wheel-bay done and the gear modified, but now doing a mirror-duplicate is taking forever.

Impressive landing gear  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
