The Nieuport
Gear Legs and Brakes Page
Yes low and slow fans... here ya go.
The up close and personal look at the Dawn Patrols revised lower gear legs and brakes
detail page that you've all been asking (nay... nagging me) for. The plates that are
on the sides of the gear legs are .040 2024-T3 AL. The PVC "rub rail" is just
hardware store thick wall PVC.

Ok...
just about the only thing NOT shown is the piece of PVC that serves as a "rub
rail" between the front and rear of the landing gear slot. The front and rear of the
slot are pieces of Oval Tubing that has been split length-wise. The PVC is slipped
over the axle and fits between the vertical bolts that serves as the bungee stops. |
Ok... Ok... I've already had complaints
about this page. I'll put in photos of the brake handle and the stick the next time I go
to Liberty Landing International Airport and take some photos......
Jeeze you guys are picky!!!
