well the retract for the tail wheel turned up today.
so i have cut a big hole in the fuselage.
and made up the retract mount.
hope to glue it in tomorrow. then i need to sort the steering servo and think about how to make up the oleo leg for the twin tail wheels.

Looks very good. 
Just a small point but you have set the linkage to 'lock out' (goes over centre) on open where as it would be normal for it to lock out on closed so the doors could be held tight shut without the servo feeling any of the load.

looks like it hinges on the two weak bits and one more in the middle
so if i fir hinges on the center section i will be close enough for my level of scale.
thanks monz.

Tony,
if I remember correctly, there were 2 hinges comprising big bolts. the middle "hinge" is in fact the operating rods for the Balance tab and Trim tab. can't remember which was which, though logic says the top ones are trim, but then logic doesn't sit well with the Shack!!
have a look at these hinges www.hobbylinc.com/htm/rob/rob310.htm . they'll carry the load easily
