question on New messer 109 E

Post by Fitzystigertank » Tue Aug 02, 2005 1:42 pm

I found a night fighter 109 today at walmart and i've found a few of the famous pilot 109's at wally world. my main and important question before i pick up one is do the landing gear lock into place like the new airplanes. My winter 109 doesn't and i don't want another E if the landing gear retracts every time it lands. if possible can I get a pic of the landing gear on the new E planes.

I've never had problems with retracting landing gear on my two 109Es. In fact, I like the landing gear better because it's not as brittle and won't crack like the newer ones seem to. But that's just me...
