...and "apophenia" correctly identified the landing gear setup as "trousers", not "spats".
Funny, I think I can recall some Stukas or something that had the actual wheel-covering part of their spats taken off (caked mud from the Russian steppes, methinks), but left the aerofoil housing around the struts---would those then be called "shorts" (or "stubbies" for you down-under types)??
