I've glued the piece back together but, don't think it'll support the weight of the aircraft :idonno
What is the concensus on this? Will she hold or not?
 
AMT 1/48 Tigercat

I doubt it. Especially with the amount of weight necessary to make it sit right :S

Cheers, Christian B)

Well the way I see it is you won't know until you try ... If she don't stand ... Then go gear up ... :smack

Thanks Mark. I got several going right now but, slow going on them mostly due to my back botherin' me, plus triple digit temps which affects my ability to airbrush that which needs done.

I managed to get the landing gear assembled & hopefully it'll hold the weight but, I doubt it & figger I'm gonna end up goin' gear up.
