LSP_K2 Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 Kev, check my thread for inner door details At the moment, I have limited access to the web, but I'll check it if I can. The Aero Detail book covers them to a fairly decent degree. mpk and Shawn M 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanKB Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Great work Kevin, both the building & photography. What's the story with web access? That's inconvenient, to put it mildly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks a bunch, Dean. Massive computer failure Monday morning, that seems to have killed my web access from my own machine. My roommate will indulge me using his computer from time to time (like right now), while I'm trying to resolve my own connectivity issues. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 The second of the two books arrived, and this particular volume (on the Ki-45 Toryu), seems to be more comprehensive than the J2M book. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 I've reworked the horizontail mounting tabs, and now have a much better fit. After re-scribing the tail, these will be ready to attach. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 Kev, check my thread for inner door details OK, and here we go, Shawn. By keeping the link right here, I'll be able to shoot over and eyeball your work from time to time. mpk and Shawn M 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_K2 Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 Well my retail therapy arrived last Friday, 10 days from ordering, it will be built this year. Cheers Dennis Great kit, and I rather imagine you'll enjoy it. Odd thing about that particular scheme (I'll probably be doing those same markings), but that particular pilot (Kanno), was apparently killed in the closing weeks of the war, shot down by Hellcats, if memory serves. It seems a shame to fight all through the war, then get killed right before it ended. mpk and Shawn M 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 Another item that I find somewhat perplexing, the Aero Detail book states that the visual loading indicators on landing gear doors, should be blue, yellow, red (from top to bottom), and yet some of their own illustrations, depict the reverse. I have no idea which is correct. mpk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
