Thanks

Well, I am glad you posted that picture as it demonstrates why I question the door and the bomb doors.
Compare its belly to the picture I posted and see if you think there could be a door on either side with these bomb bay doors.
The door would open into an open bomb bay would it not? Could there be a door there with bomb racks on the wall?
I believe that the bomb bay is asymmetric, on the port side only.
I think you may have got hold of a drawing that is incorrect. Everything I see indicates that the bomb bay was on the left side only.

John, John, John, you are the man. :jump: :applause:
Excellent! Now that I built the bomb bay doors two times, it seems that, for sure, three times will be the charm. :icon_lol:
BTW, I have maybe 6 different drawings; they all show two doors. :-/

Got it John; thank you for that.
I do have more questions for clarification of other items as follows: (Refer to labeled picture attached)
A: What are these? How do they work?
B: Is this a rotating beacon?
C: What is this? Does it drop/extend/retract? When, are there speed limitations?
D: I have several pictures that do a fair job of showing the cabling here but some not definitive. Is there a better, more accurate schematic or drawing available?
E: I cannot make this out: mini doors?
F: Appears to be a retractable antenna like on top of teh E1B radome?
G: Identify please.
H: Fuel dump on right nacelle is located outboard; left nacelle fuel dump is inboard?
Thanks in advance :)
The weapons compartment (bomb bay) is asymmetric on ALL Stoofs, and it is on the Port side (Captain's side). The relatively rare -2 had an expanded bay to accommodate a nuclear weapon; the expansion resulted in a faired extension on the Port side. Internally, the crew door leads to a step-up onto the interior floor upon which all four crewmen have their stations. The interior floor is the top of the weapons bay. To my knowledge there was not even a mockup of a full-width weapons compartment, as that would have REALLY complicated crew entry.

thought i'd stick my nose back in, Weathering is 90% complete, parts being shipped bit by bit to my 'sidekick' Nick for final decalling prior to go on the Stoof with a Roof paintkit :salute:
