Clifford KeeslerI got it all re-scribed today and started the pit. I used the Eduard RF-4C PE set for the Hasegawa kit. It is looking good, I will put up some pictures tomorrow. The cockpit sidewall detail in the kit was pretty nice. I noticed that even though it is in a Testor's box it has Iterali stamped inside the fuselage. So far fit is quite nice.

Clifford KeeslerTis one is now kind of on hold, my son will not be able to make it for Christmas, so I have a little more time. So I am going to order some resin wheels and seats.

Clifford KeeslerThank you all very much. I have to paint the resin seats, and add the nav lights. I have the Master metal pitot tubes and AOA vane for it. I have never used them, so am looking forward to seeing how they look.

Konrad -Very nice Clifford. The Master Parts a great I use the parts on all my builds once available.
12 February 2018, 05:30
Donald Dickson IICliff, the Master stuff is fantastic. Fairly low cost and almost always much more accurate than kit stuff.

Patrick HagelsteinI love Master Parts too. I use it for all my pitots and AoA sensors. Just drill an appropriate hole and voilá!

Martin OostromYou jump started this project really well. Quick and beautiful!
12 February 2018, 20:18
Clifford KeeslerThank you all. I will be using the master parts on my future builds. I really like the detail, and you can't argue with the price.

Donald Dickson IIIKR? Like 5-10 bucks for accurate METAL pitots and the like. No more snapping them in two putting them in a display case or transporting them etc etc

JensBut since you have chosen a very old work-intensive piece, respect 👍,
in another forum is just Vietnam topic, because I would then decide to go for a phantom, I think Wolfpack offers beautiful folding wings for, let's see ... still is time to start 😄
19 February 2018, 20:20
Clifford KeeslerThanks Jens. I have plenty of Phanthom's to build, I will give the Wolfpack wingfold set a look see.
19 February 2018, 20:30
Konrad -A nice beast 🙂! By the way the folding set from Wolfpack is great! I've used it on my Navy Spook!
