Oratex 6000 used for exposed areas

While using Oratex UL600 for all other parts I used Oratex 6000 for the landing gear for extra protection on this particularly exposed area...

I used extruded polystyrene foam for the trailing edges, it is very stiff, easy to shape and it weighs nothing...

Aluminium tape give a good strength to the edge where the foam is thin.

While Oratex UL600 is very strong the 6000 feels almost destructible. This might be overkill but the landing gear take a lot of beating - particularly when passengers get in and out...

There is a video on YouTube where gravel is shot on Oratex 6000 with a slingshot at -25 C (-13F)... and another where they beat it with a hammer...
