G-BUCO that great looking Piet from Great Britan has large diameter wheelson split gear as do several of the aircraft on the Aircamper.org site. Thereis an advantage to this as the braking torque is easily transfered to the Aframes of the gear. As to cost ... No idea as most of what I do is done byscrounging.John Mc-----Original Message-----
