Thanks :)  It's not immediately obvious from the renderings on the page,

you tip one wing up, both move in sync and both landing struts pivot into
place.  It is much simpler than my previous designs of retractable landing
gear, but it works.

That's incredible.  I'd love to see an animation to help me visualize the
movement.  (wink, wink, nudge, nudge :)

BTW, I'm wondering how you (and others) feel about your Pallas Spaceworks
pages being featured as a new CLSotW pick...  It's too amazing not to at
least mention it as a "past-picks update"[1]...but, like Ed Boxer's
subsequent two large works after his original castle, the Pallas Spaceworks
area of your site is a large, substantial, self-contained building-project
worthy IMHO completely on its own.

So the question is this:  list Pallas Spacworks as (a) a "past-picks update"
on CLSotW or as (b) a nominated new site?

Similarly, your amazing collection of microfig-scale Star Wars models
(21 last time I counted!) is well-deserving IMHO of a prominent featuring
all by itself.
