I think just a little sweep would look a little better--that's all. NOT like the sweep on the original straight legged, but swept, Bollys--but those DO look good on the shorter gear. The amount of sweep I think I'm envisioning is about the same that it would appear to make the gear legs perpendicular to horizontal as the airplane sits. I do not care much for the looks of the longer, curved, Bolly gear. All the standard pants seem too large and butt ugly. I like them pointier, slimmer, and more elegant.<BR>RS<BR><BR><BR></FONT>
