Hi Bob,

The Swiss flew Mk 58 versions of the Hunter and these have a few differences with the more common Mk 6 that I believe is the Reeves kit. I had a Ripmax Hunter that I had considered using for competition (before realizing there were too many errors) and was using the Mk 58 at the Pima Museum in Tucson, AZ as a reference. Tony Quist and I visited the museum and took a few hundred pics and measurements. I've got them around here somewhere. If you need pics, let me know.


Regards,

Jim
