Bernie, T-88 is still the glue I would use. As far as
construction goes, all the wood parts are still the
same using the fixed gear. Dan Diehl, R.R., and Grove
are sources for the landing gear. They come with
assembly instructions. If you go to Dan Diehl's
website he has the instructions there. You can also
see pictures of how the gear is made. Rick Wilson.
