Re: Modifications of F-14

::shock, horror:: Aki's cutting a Japan-only Black Bunny into pieces!

PS--my Black Bunny had a VERY loose nosegear "box"----I had to add several coats to thicken it up enough to stay in the fuselage. How is yours?

That was the same on my model.
I noticed the upper suface of the nose landing gear well had buckled up slightly and it has been straight having removed the nose gear strut. The nose gear well is made from a flexible matrial and it seems it will curve when the strut is installed fullly on it, which means it misaligns the aft hole for the gear installation and the down lock actuator.
Now, the installation of the gear has been modified and the nose landing gear well with the gear and the doors won't fall down by gravity in case it's set in the fuselage.
