Weird. And the real ones looked just as weird! She's looking good! :applause:
Captured by aliens? It' will never fly!

That's going to be a nice "Stoof with a roof".:icon_lol:
LOL Still grinding on the major parts ...Attachment 45639
*shakes box*
"Does it have wings?!?!"
"Not yet..."
:icon_lol:
Shes looking better and better each and every day. I dont how you do it Uncle Milton but she a beauty!
Uncle Milton, this is one airplane that will make up a lot of flight time in my book! Thanks for doing the E-1 first! Look forward to it!
The E-1B is why I originally decided to do this project. It came first because it is the toughest to do. The radome has been a real bear to get right, but the biggest challenge is always the fuselage. You must get the fuselage "face" looking right before going further or it will destroy the whole look. I do spend a lot of time trying to get all the mesh as realistic as possible using the 3-views and RW pictures. I do not have teh gmax skills many have but I am persistent. :)
:salute: Simply fascinating to watch this bird taking shape from its concept.
Gentlemen, Milton's not modelling the aircraft. He's ENGINEERING it!
Beautiful work indeed...I would put up an icon: the world's entire supply of ouzo, but spose I'd better do it at a later date for obvious reasons!

Hi Friends,
A silly question for Milton: After the Tracer ? I hope in a wonderful Tracker !!!!!
And, why not, a Trader........
:salute::salute::salute:
now i have a stupid question, why isnt this thread a sticky? :icon29:
That's a very good question, if not a subtle way of request.
Cheers,
Maarten
I have read about the added lift. If you have actual flight experience, we would welcome any input regarding handling characteristics. If you have access or know of books or pilots reports, that information would be helpful in our creation of flight models.
Thank you

Any angle for reference, but need a straight on shot for design and textures.
Thanks for the help.
Anyone interested in books, I found this source:

All the best
Thank you Richard. Those are good shots of the engine in the nacelle.
But, what I seek are pictures of the engine on a stand or outside the nacelle so that I can use it to create an engine texture for the model,similar to the attached picture of the A-26 engine.Attachment 45755
Making some basic progress (i.e. just the basics) on wings and nacelles.
