ruzlkampf Posted November 19, 2008 Share Posted November 19, 2008 Me too Texas!!! I had to go back and read this thread from the beginning it's so interesting. Really zoomed in on your seamless intakes, as I'm trying to fabricate some for my F-4S. Nice job! Really admire your tenacity at sticking with this build to the finish. Really like that weathered finish. Can't wait to see the next progress pics! Later, Russ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek B Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Hi BB, As usual, I'm late again! It is always a pleasure to see one of your jet builds. I like the F/A-18s, and your build is brilliant - it is very educational seeing how you overcome problems. Looks like you're just about there now - well done. Regards Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kagemusha Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Very nice work. The flag on the airbrake's a bit curious, as it's right to left-if you know what I mean-as opposed to left to right which would seem more natural. Some nice wide pics would be great when she's finished, cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
