What a fantastic build Karl. I missed this build until now, but just read the whole thing. Excellent  work all around.

 

This offer may be a little late but if you would like I can supply detail photos of the Miramar museum aircraft. I work on base and have access to all aircraft at the museum  every week when my crew preforms maintenance  work there.

My crew is there on Mondays when the museum is closed. Both requested areas may be difficult. #1 I am not that tall, #2 if I remember correctly the outer doors are closed.

 

But I will give it a try.

Just what i needed for the main wheelwells!!!!!

the front well has a custom panel that closes it, maybe for nobody hurting his head? the blasttubes for the guns are also not present, because all of the still existing aircraft i have seen were converted to electronic warfare aircraft, it does help on the position of the fwd strut and its tilting axis.

many thanx Dan!!!

So glad to see your "Pale Moonlight" build still going Karl, quite amazing and slightly disappointing that people don't occasionally look in the GB area to see what's happening, but I'm pleased to see that moving it to a WiP has meant more info for you.  Looking forward to seeing more progress over the next few weeks.
