Barry Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 Hey Barry, I'm impressed with the wire bundles. That was the main reason I chose to stick with the Aires Bay and not go with the Kit plus Eduard faces.....those bundles. Thats some really fine wire. Already I'm going to drill out the LOX bottle and I THINK the blob they inserted between two "boxes" on the top shelf. Your "Bay" certainly looks like the Air Force...........clean and neat. Regards Steve Thanks Steve, The wire in by North West Short Line. It is super flexible made for model Railroad use. It is 29 ga wire made up of 60 strands! I just wish could find a way without having to twist it. It is so fine that it is had to contain after I strip away the insulation. We tried to keep them neat but that was not always the case. It is a lot easier when you don't have the effects of all that ocean to keep out! Barry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big matt Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I am certain all that equipment is fully functional Barry! Fantastic! What a treat to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotorhead Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Barry, Went to NWSL looking for that wire......must have been disguised as another product.....any hints on what I should look at? I was a Marine.........our stuff worked, but it sure got weathered fast. I always enjoyed going to the factory to pick up a new aircraft............ahhh the joys of "new car smell"..............it just don't last too long.

Barry Posted November 22, 2015 Author Share Posted November 22, 2015 (edited) After closing down the EF-4C Pallet build I am resurrecting this long stalled build. It has been hanging around since 2003. I had originally intended to take it to the 2005 NATS. NEW goal is to have it ready for the 2016 NATS whether I enter it or not will be determined by the final results. I hope to post an "actual" update in the next week.

dmthamade Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Would be great to see your SLUFF finished. Just went through the thread, are you going to keep the drop tanks? IIRC the tanks off trumpeters A-4 look closer to the truth? Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
