It would appear that they are doing more than one version. What's not yet clear is whether they are including optional parts for multiple versions in the same box. The Club is the fixed gear version, and the USAF TG-16a is fixed gear. But the artwork for the version shown on Facebook shows a retractable gear version, and a self-launching version at that. Could be optional parts in the same box enabling multiple options.

Just for the benefit of anyone who is thinking of modelling the TG-16A, USAFA has fixed wheels and 59' aerobatic rated wings, not the longer wings included with this kit. Further, the TG-16A's main wheel is fixed as noted above, and the version Brengun has modelled has a different nose with no nose wheel.

Maybe when they release the planned TG-16A kit that will be a valid criticism, but as they have demonstrated that they are releasing multiple variants of the kit with different parts including fixed and retractable, pure sailplane and powered, let's wait and see, eh?

Whoops, definitely my mistake! Seeing only the long-winged renders I got a touch ahead of myself. I wasn't criticizing.
