On to the fuselage. :running:
My Gawd Son! R U flyin' that thing upside down! LOL
Looks awesome!
Milton, Duckie;
You lads should be ashamed of yourselves publishing photographs like that here.
The least you could do, was to give credit to the poor photographers who spent their precious time and skill taking the snaps.
Bet you didn't even bother to get their permission! :a1310:
edit; important announcement; this is the cockpit i use, it was given to me by a kind Scott!

It has two seats, so Toucan play!
Duckie... glad to see you've been taking a leaf out of my flying handbook... just ask Nigel how green he was around the gills after flying onboard for an F-16 demo :icon_lol:
Milton, can you shoot me the latest files, as i might rejoin in on texturing now i have a few new tricks up my sleeve :icon_lol:
Duckie, if my trick works i'll shoot you the layers :salute:
What time did we arrange to meet at Sedes this morning for your Avia flying lesson young man???
Attachment 55845 Attachment 55844
Milton! Please! Don't listen to him, don't shoot him anything;
he'll try sticking some of those wierd lights all over de place, again...:toilet:
sorry about that Nigel, had a bit of a Fraccas with some Turkish Vipers :icon_lol:
my Ai seems to like them straying over Greece, i don't so i go chasing them off :icon_lol:
when you're ready Nigel shoot me the Sedes files and i'll get tweaking and creating, the amount of projects i have i've half a mind to take an eraser to a few on the list and make a clean start :icon_lol:
The panel & VC are really shaping up nicely. They look fantastic - with lots of beautiful steam gauges and switches to flip - just the way I like 'em! :icon_lol:
Excellent work by all involved. Really looking forward to this...
W.I.P. Shots of Ryan Air Attack base that a friend is working on. Its gonna be a nice little place to operate the S-2s out of, just like old times.

You kidding me Bravo, Bravo. Keep the law?
The silly clots can't even set the internet up properly...It's been like reeeeeellllll sssslllloooowww mmmoootttiiiooon today, when I needed it most too!
They'll never catch me in 'that' Tracker...its a 'one off job' that came in my Christmas stocking.
Pair of coupled-up-souped up, R-2800 'specialsx' in each nacelle.
Naaah, I was gone before I got there.
kinda stopped 'em in their tracks.
And they can stick their internet... I'm going to ask Uncle Milton to fix me up with a special 'Internet Stoof with a Roof!'
Who's waiting for me back at dispersal?...That's you, I saw that SF flick past...knew you were up to something.
if they're onto Nigel they're onto me.... time to disappear to my top secret testing facility.... :icon_lol:
Is anyone doing this one?
CWHM Tracker
I'm looking for something to do now. lol...
Ok when it's ready perhaps I'll have a go at the Canuck version.
Can someone tell me if the bottom of the engine nacelles of the E-1 Looked like the line diagram below, specifically the area between the aft end of the cowl and the forward gear doors?
I'm unable to find any detailed photos of this area for the E-1.
I notice on the photos that I can find of the and E-1 and S-2 this area on operational birds, it appears very stained from some kind of venting of oil/fluid and or hot air exhaust. The venting seems to be "sucked' into the gear well and further vented aft out the gear wells. I realize some staining would naturally occur aft of the gear doors just from take off and landing operations but there seems to be additional staining caused by the venting or exhausting from the cowl area.
I really like the way the nacelle bottoms look on the last 2.
Any info is good and pics are even better.

Whole lot of walkarounds here: http://www.clubhyper.com/reference/t...erencefr_1.htm :salute:
Hey Nigel -that may be the money shot! I actually have that one but I have it filed under "landing gear and wells," so I did even thoroughly enough search my own stuff!
It definately shows what may be an oil cooler outlet and another cowl type flap just ahead of the main gear well.
Unfortunately most of the walk-a-rounds are of gate guards and other static displays which have all been painted then repainted, long obliterating what I call their "operational character".
Good one. Thanks
Love your thoroughness! Greatly looking forward to this one my man!
Hang in there Duckie.
You can thank tankerguy72 for these pics.
