Hi,
Thanks. Groovalishous, sounds like a new Bubble Gum flavor. :-) Anyway,
yes the landing gear does fold up. I don't have cover's built for them when
they retract though. The rear gear uses click hinges, while the front uses
a alligator hinge.
The plane is very sturdy. It can be picked up by the nose and not fall
apart. It also still has great "Wooshability" for it's size. It measures
37 inches long and 35 inches wide.
