                        Hi guys:



                        Well I'm having a grat time building that beutifull Corsair, but now its time to decide. This is something like a poll. What do yuo think about? Must I finish the model with extended wings and lowered flaps (I love the shape) or with folded wings and lowered flaps?. (It looks nice but "weird").


                        Thanks folks, I'll really appreciate your opinion.

                        I'm going to fold the wings on mine, but that's mainly to save space. How about one up and one down, just to show both sides, sort of like a concept piece?

                        Never been much of a folded wing fan myself,(they don't look like they could fly so good that way) but it seems especially bad to ruin the look of the graceful trademark inverted gulls of the F4-U.

                        Wings down/flaps extended......
                        BUT, that's just my vote..Do whatever turns ya on!Smile [:)]

                        Fold the wings only if you have limited shelf space!

                        Keep the wings out and proud, it is ready to fly! I have a similar decison right now with a 1:32 Revell F4U1D. It is going on my desk and looking like it is ready for action in the South Pacific.
