Not sure if I will detail landing gear. It's so small you almost need a microscope. Decals, etc. will be a challenge.

Damn, that's cute. I had one of these back in the late fifties when I was 10ish. Couldn't wait for the glue to dry, so my brother set it on top of the oil stove that heated our house and of course all the plastic parts melted and the plane looked like it had been shot down in flames.

Beautiful work. Something about solid wood models that are really special. Especially the ones that are built well, like this one.

Thanks Ray and Creosotewind. One of the things I like is how much you learn about it as you research. While Strombecker calls this a "C" model, it's actually closer to the "A" and I am shooting for the "B". The external differences were mainly an 8" longer nose and 2 piece main gear doors. The last 2 aerial "kills" were made by a P-61b out of Iwo Jima.
