Status: offline 		Geez fellas, I have to start a couple other things and kaboom, the thread's dead . What's up guys? At least you could let a fellow live vicariously through you while he completes another plane or two. The thread's already a page 3 item. I have to try to liven it up somehow. You guys have to get going to keep giving me good ideas

Status: offline 		Good news for those missed out on TF GS Corsair kit. Tower Hobbies is listing it for back order now. Available late Feb 2006. I guess this is the 4th production run?

I like this kit so much that I ordered another one. Tower raised the price to $300.

Pilot is Jim Rose. Jim was flying an A26 during Korea War. This 30-pound miniature Corsair is a piece of cake for Jim.

I am not sure what your question is. but if you are asking will a F/G/S new TF-20B cowl with open doors fit over G62, The ansure is no,per there own measurements, unless you raise the engine above center, then a dummy engine is not possible. I hope this helps, if you have further question please ask and I will try to ansure..

Status: offline 		Bob, no questions. I thought you were asking me about what setup I'm using. I have a pretty good idea of what's in volved to put the cowl on. Seems like it fits pretty nice to me. I've got no problem opening up the bottom of the cowl over the engine head if I have to. Small price to pay for me on this one.
