Thanks for the info on the retracts,Dave, much appreciated,leaning to the

would be nice,if I can find one?

> Hello Brian,

only things I dont like about them is, when combined with outta-round brake
drums, the the aluminum spring bar winds-up and releases and makes it
shudder.  Plus, the hole in the fuselage for the spring bar makes for a
excellent cold-air vent at high altitudes so I have to wear double socks. I
had a horrible landing 2 flights ago and really belly-flopped and bounced it
in and the retracts held up fine.  Another benefit is you can log retract
time for insurance purposes.
> As for brakes, I run toe/cable operated Azusa go-cart drum brakes.  I dont
recommend them unless theyre already set up.  The brakes will barely hold
the plane at full power, but theyre not much use for slowing the plane down
to exit the runway.
