Parabat Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 A nice looking Tomcat for sure, any chance of some more pictures to show this off? What is the piece sticking up in frint of the windscreen? Did you use Fightertown decals for this build? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Boy Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 A nice looking Tomcat for sure, any chance of some more pictures to show this off? What is the piece sticking up in frint of the windscreen? Did you use Fightertown decals for this build? The thing sticking up in front of the windscreen is a representation of the wind vane. It is simply a piece of string attached to the nose so that the pilot can get a more accurate indication of wind direction during landind aboard the carrier. Believe it or not, all F-14s were fitted with it but so few photos actually show it. Also not often photographed are the three holes on the F-14A or the single vent on some Bs and Ds just at the base of the windscreen which vents warm air blowing over the windscreen to clear rain and heat the windscreen to prevent fogging and icing.
