Since the field is closed until April, I use this time for maintenance on all my planes and helis.
Since I was removing the Shuttle mechanics from the FK A109 for a good degreasing and inspection, I thought I would give the fuselage a new look. I removed the tricycle gear and added skids to make a stand off (way way off) AW109 Trekker.
I used a set of skids for the FK .30 size JetRanger and took an inch out of the cross tubes to make them a bit narrower. I am really liking the look. Next I will figure out a way to close the holes from the gear and maybe change the exhaust to the baloney cut exhaust. Skids will also be painted , just not sure what color yet.
