    Skymarks models question

    I'm contemplating getting a Skymarks model and the one I am looking at has landing gear.

    Is it possible to remove the gear or no? I mean semi-permanently?
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    My Skymarks A380 has fixed landing gear but my 787 model has removable gear. I think it just depends on the model you're looking at.

    I've never even seen a SkyMarks model with gear.

    I'm sure the gear on that A380 can be removed once...

    Re: Skymarks models question

    So as a follow up, I am about to order the Skymarks 743 Malanji Dreaming. its 200 scale.

    Can anyone tell how it compares in detail and overall appearance to its 400 counterpart (by phoenix/herpa/gemini)?

    I have a Skymarks Virgin A340-600

    Unfortunately you can not take out the gear, and IMHO its a good price because the make a vast variety of planes, but not all come with the landing gear, I think they glue it in. I have a few including a OA A340-300 - its a good looking model if you ask me =]. I also have a WN 73NG my ROTC class bought me in Washington DC 8)

    I had a skymarks model and the paint job was messed up and the engine didn't fit on properly.
    Maybe It was a second or something.

    I, personally have 2 Skymark models, I don't think they are that good at all. The modeling is pretty bad (cheap) and the engines look like crap as well.
    nwa FOREVER!
