Also, the main gear doors drop too, just like a P-51.
Ah beauty! I have a 2001 M Coupe, so I know what you mean about the S54! Mine has a ton of miles on it, but it's too fun to drive to let it sit!
I'll probably be using this build as a guide to do an F-5 of my own this summer, so I appreciate everything you're doing here Chuck. Also your username... do you have a Z3?
Can't believe nobody has commented on this, but it looks great. I wish you'd be doing a CF-5 to complement your Hornet, but this looks amazing. Makes me want to get back into modelling.
