Hello Elbee, yes I was referring to the flight line retracts. The retracts I have in my top flite spitfire are old robart 85 degree retracts. They are slightly swept back like the full scale spitfire when they are in the retract posiition.

I ran downstairs and took a couple photos.
The retracts look correct to me, but I did not measure the forward rake.
See what you think.
Have a great Thanksgiving Day and "Tally Ho".
Best, Steve

Thanks Randy, much appreciated.
Many years ago I had started a Pica (Dave Platt) Spitfire to convert to a Mk XVII Seafire.
It has more miles on it from moving and my life changes than it should and it is still a work in progress.
When FlightLine introduced their Mk9, I felt a reprieve of sorts and opted to do a clipped Seafire Mk III but in the later livery.
Fantasy Bird, but I like it.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours,
