SET: Scale Aircraft Conversions  48057: F-100D Landing Gear
PRICE: $12.95 MSRP
FOR: Monogram or Revell kit
REVIEWER: Scott Van Aken
NOTES: Cast Metal

More great stuff for Monogram kits and this time Scale Aircraft Conversions has chosen the F-100D. Many will find this set most welcome for their builds. It includes the nose gear and main gear struts.  These are direct replacements for the kit parts so no instructions are needed. As you can see from the image, the casting is top notch.

The gear is quite sturdy and all one needs to do is clean up the mold seams, paint things and install them.  Don't sweat getting thinner bits that might get a bit bent in shipping. By slowly working them back into position, they are as good as new. It is one of the realities of cast white metal that we all come across.

You can order these direct athttp://www.scaleaircraftconversions.com if your local hobby shop or favorite on-line retailer does not stock them.
