Zinc Rot, What is it?

Hopefully, it's just the landing gear. I think those spare main and nose gear parts are still available from Aeroclassicsdirect.com or Jetcollector.com
I have one Air China B732 with same problem. I glued it back a year ago and still stands on the shelf.
 
I think u guys should be glad ur zinc rot is only a few cracks here and there, look at those varigs! (image from N907CL on DA.C)
And this!

I guess these models in these pics have also started with "a few cracks here and there" before evolving to these sad outcomes.

But sure, the less zinc rots effects, the better. Some models might just keep small cracks and stay mostly intact.

Even worse, is that the 2nd photo is a BigBird!! eBay Sellers are now crying in the corner.
