God help you dude.
Why? We weren't doing anything illegal and we were some sixty miles outside of US territorial waters anyway so they didn't have jurisdiction anyway.

Never heard about EEZ (200 Nq), Montego Bay convention nor United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).
We really are OT, sorry.

Very nice Gollevainen.
But I will be pain in the... (You know what) once again.
Last time I checked, in the undercarriage of An-2, the struts were on the inner side of the wheels, not on the outer, and both An-2 and Il-14 had wheels, not eggs.
Maybe this would be useful.

The Il-14's wheel is "artistic liberty, since the size of the wheel (and the shape) at those pixels really don't allow circle form. An-2's carriage I drew according to the orginal building plans that you can find on web by bit of search.

While I am aware, that arguing with Site Admin is a very poor policy choice, I'll dare to keep my opinion.
1) these had to be some very weird plans of An-2. Maybe the picture You used as a reference was deliberately showing only one "leg" of the landing gear (the opposite to the viewer, further away) to show it's construction that would be invisible on a side view with both "legs".
If You look at some of the photos here:
http://www.airliners.net/search/photo.s ... ers.net%2F
You'll see that struts are definitely not on the outer side of the wheels.
2) My point was that those Your wheels had different number of pixels in height and different in width, esp. in the inner (metal) part of the Il-14's main gear.
That picture I've uploaded is, I believe, a representation closer to reality - free of charge.

That's why I draw only gear-retracted plane
@ Gollevainen : Can I use your An-2 to make the An-4 (An-2V) ?

I asked first and I'm already drawing it
