Scale Aircraft Conversions 32062: Spitfire IX  Landing Gear
PRICE: $14.95 MSRP
FOR: Pacific Coast 1/32 Kit
REVIEWER: Scott Van Aken
NOTES: Cast Metal

This Scale Aircraft Conversions set is for the Pacific Coast 1/32 Spitfire IX. As it is for a WWII fighter, it is pretty basic. The set includes new main landing gear legs and the oleo scissors. Also included is a new tail gear leg and a new tail wheel.  These are direct replacements for the kit items. Some of the thin bits will need gentle straightening, but that is normal for the medium used.

The gear is quite sturdy and all one needs to do is clean up the mold seams, paint things and install them. As you can see from the image, the casting is first rate.

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