Harold 3,563 Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 Gallant gesture from one gentleman to another. Hats down. Harv was good enough to send a wing to use for prototyping. Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Quick question Harold , I was under the impression that the top didn't taper at the back end. Your thoughts?... Harv Link to post Share on other sites

Harold 3,563 Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 Quick question Harold , I was under the impression that the top didn't taper at the back end. Your thoughts?... Harv The wooden prototype did. The production tapered back but I think had a flat section on/under the rear of it, but I can't find good refs that show it. Link to post Share on other sites

ziggyfoos 1,359 Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Are you doing a full F4U-2 conversion or only the pod? Harold 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Harold 3,563 Posted July 21, 2016 Author Share Posted July 21, 2016 Are you doing a full F4U-2 conversion or only the pod? So far, just the pod itself. Maybe more later. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 Yes. Exhaust flame dampers. The LS set also has bomb racks that look pretty good. There is also the radar scope for the IP. But there are NO pics of it so don't know how accuret it is....Harv Link to post Share on other sites
