1/32 Trumpeter AV-8B using flying leatherneck pylons

[Matt3502]

Good Morning LSP members. Glad I found this site.

I am currently working on the Trumpeter 1/32 AV-8B Night attack Harrier. It has been a long time since I have built a 1/32 plane and I have had this in my stash for a while, but if I had known what a pain this kit was going to be I would have done a Harrier in 1/48.  I am using a number of Flying Leatherneck aftermarket parts: HUD, Canopy Det cord, GBU-12's and the pylon set. Unfortunately, Dave Roof's computer pulled a HAL, and he lost all the instructions for his various add-ons. 

I have seen that a number of members have used the FL pylons and I was wondering if any has a copy of the directions they could send me.

Many Thanks and thanks for allowing me to join.

Welcome to the forums!

 

Hopefully someone will have some instructions they can scan for you

Thanks.  I have seen a couple of folks' posts from last year and I'm hoping they still have them.

Indeed, if you look there are a few builds out there for sure.

Hi Matt. Welcome aboard. 

Maybe consider also asking this question in the Flying Leatherneck vendors forum?

You might get more foot traffic than right down here at the bottom of the forum. 

Hope someone can help. Good luck and perhaps consider sharing your progress in the WIP forum too. It would be good to see another jet being built. 

Cheers,

Guy

Yes, and I have found some photos, and I have reached out to Dave roof directly. I am big on doing things the right way so I am hoping someone has the directions in their spare parts/ old directions box.
