| Looks like you invented the first ejection capsule of WWI-WWII. I like the finish, do you spray paint or brush it on? |

| Like I said, the progress is slow, but I am learning a lot and enjoying the company and comraderie of this site. |

| My next kit will be a P-35. Lots and lots of opportunity to use these tools. |

| I'm not real happy with the tissue. I did a lot of experimenting (solder, paints, tissues). I wanted something sturdy for the covering. On the wings I used three layers of tissue using dope. The fuselage uses some old "tissue" from a Cleveland kit. Very heavy and not very conforming. It has some wrinkles, but then again, at my age, who doesn't. |

| This must date from WW2. Used to guide pilots to Williams, Luke and Thunderbird Fields. I had a pilot's diary of training at Williams in T-6s and he mentions seeing these guides. |

| Ed is the good looking one on the left. I am the one with no fashion sense. |

Detail of the cockpit. The cage is just placed. |

The cowling. Thin tooling aluminum, ebossed w/fake rivets. |

Tailwheel. I've added the chain and springs. |

Slow progress. It is still fun, though. |

He lives out in B.F. Egypt. Fortunately, there were signs to point me home. |

A few weeks ago I spent an afternoon with Ed Clark. |

| Well, once again it is in the wrong category. Do'h. I want the Piper L-4 to have a "rode hard and put up wet" look to it. These were front line planes landing in muddy fields. I would imagine they got a bit dirty themselves. |

I love the painting part of modelling. |

| This should be with the other Piper photos in the STA category. Which is still the wrong category, but what the heck. |
