BallsBuster Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I am in the process of tackling the Special Hobby kit and sort of trying to figure out a few things: - the position lights arrangement - i.e. were the blisters transparent and the lamps colored or the blisters were of a corresponding color glass? - is there anywhere a photo showing how the pilot's canopy opened? Slid back - then where the rails were positioned? - was the arrestor hook painted underside color or NM? Would appreciate any suggestions....
