Welcome to Stormo.

Here are some photos of the C.202 wheel wells and gear undersides from Aero Detail #15. Also review the Gallery, there's a number of detailed builds by Jean worth studying.

One conundrum of mine is whether the Macchi fighters had upper wheel well covers as standard?
C.202/205 Manuals seem to show them, but that does not mean they were not removed after repairs...
Also, what about C.200?
