I received a "test" shot of the tub from Harold. Here are the photos.

A 1/32 P-6E, now your talking. Barry

Most likely it will be a combination of filling, filing and sanding. Photos should give you a good idea of how best to blend the transaction. Barry

Nice Cobra !!!! Barry

Gerry, I am in for the conversion set, SCAT X is my selection. Barry

I would

Standing by for arrival. Will let you know. Thanks Again, Barry

You both may be right.

I would say the answer is yes! Barry

I agree completely. I have been trying to scheme a way to rework the intakes/fuselage to capture the recessed area forward of the intakes. I suppose I could just cut this area out and rebuild or cut above and below the area and bow the existing plastic down. Barry

Nice OB build on Modeling Madness. Barry

Harold, You are making excellent progress. Looking forward to obtaining the finished product for my build. Barry

Phantastic !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Barry

Tremendous Work !! The skill and level of your detail work is maddening!!!!!!!!!! Love It!!!!!!! Barry

Your right Gunpowder they are mastered by the same guy. Your Phantom is very nicely done. I am currently tuning my skills up on the A-7D and F-8E builds getting ready to launch into my on F-4 project. It will be USAF in Vietnam motif. Great Work !!!!!! The Phantom Fixer

Nice looking Spit One of the loveliest aircraft designs of all time. Barry

Very nice work Glenn. Barry

Harold Looking Good! Sounds like your "gimmick" for the stick will work well for those wanting to position the flight control surfaces. Good planning. I had the same thoughts when I looked at the Avionix set regarding the detail on the side consoles. Barry

Paul, I have gotten stalled out as of late. Seem to have too many irons in the fire right now to really get the juices flowing on either the Crusader the SLUF the Phantom or F-80. You can see part of the problem. I earn my living from the Corporate Jet business "Gulfstream Aerospace" and with all the help we are getting from the "new" Washington Establishment. You know those "Evil Corporations and Wealthy Folks" that invest in American jobs like mine! Sorry, got off track a little but not to worry. Because of their extra efforts we are going to get a 5 week furlough in July so I will have plenty of time to catch up on my modeling. Could be worse though, a lot of others are getting more than furloughs. On a brighter note, I received the new Aires Cockpit for the F-8E/H and it is very nice and along with Harold's Early F-8 Seat I am ready to chug forward again. I need to add a few more details to the Burned Nozzle and I should be ready to close up the Fuselage. Because I am building an in-flight display I will save a huge amount of time by not having to build the wheel wells. I hope to make up for that with a nicely detailed deployed Speed Brake along with the deployed IFR Probe. Thanks for the words of encouragement. Barry
