I will certainly be down there to have a look.
How hard were the retracts to replace George? I had read that, and it was turning me off that model, but love the P-38, such an awesome majestic plane!
I had to make plywood mounts to screw in the servoless retracts. Not hard just very fiddly and takes a bit of stuffing around as you also have the doors to allow them to close. Once you learn how to fly first, the P-38 could be a first warbird, it's is an easy flyer for a twin motor plane.
