great looking sonex and sounds like a real plane should. Congradulations. Thanks for posting

I think it would be so cool to put the SubSonex retractable landing gear in a Sonex or Waiex even if it had to be beefed up a little. Like the BD5 Micro Jet, the gear could be raised and lowered by hand and not necessarily electrically to save weight. I'm sure there would be a lot less air drag and better speed with retractable gear. Do you know if it's ever been considered or possible? Just saying/asking.
