Re: New Pictures of Six Altaya 1:144th Scale Aircraft Models

Each wheel had its own landing gear leg!!

Yes you are correct. The one reason for this is the shallow wing and lack of room in the two engined nacelle created a design where the outer strut lifted towrds the wing tip
and the inner strut retracted towards the wing root. This design was also to be a dive bomber..........big weight penalties.
