man took a while to find the thread, been a while, i think i have solved the bubbles, i used the bubbles tank and had good results, need to reaply the cowl and do a few more test runs, but now for the bad news, saturday me and the wife had a accident on the harley, I am ok, just got my arms all bandaged up, but my wife is in pretty bad shape, still in the hospital in modesto, i am hoping to get her to fresno maybe tommorrow, she is ok but in lots of pain, 7 broken ribs, and a fractured shoulder blade all on the right side. she walked a little today so thats good, thank god we are alive, but the raider is gona have to wait a while longer, this is the longest it has ever taken me to get a plane in the air, my friend know and can tell you that usually its up the next weekend, but i need to focus on the wife and how i am gona pay the bills. anyways keep us in your prayers, thanks to all my fellow flyers.

hey Eric , good luck , we will pray for your wife , also remember add some things in the plus colume. WHat I mean is that I am a vp of sales , but I also coach and condition ice hockey teams . WHen you are trying to recover you need to help the body with the proper food(best possible) and rest .
You know your wife taiste -go to a good suppliment store , get a great whey protein , it will help with the bones and muscle repair and usually taiste great . Soy is great for women but many can not tolerate the taiste .
So I am not hijacking the thread , any questions just PM me , remember -the body is a car , the better the fule the better the performance

As far as the plane , how are the wheels as far as weight , wondering if there worth it based on the weight traveling aft .

Eric,

Very sorry to hear of the accident... We are out of the state right now, but will be saying prayers for your wife's and family for a fast recovery.

I don't live very far from you. When we're back, if you need anything feel free to use my cell phone # and give a call... Heck, I'm even good for midnight runs to Vons over on Ashlan for milk.

Tom

Kondor, Glad you marketed the greatest prop driven attack boomer ever built. It looks like too many people are comparing The KMP A-1H to the a/c at the Goleta museum. AD-6 (A-1H) to an AD-4NA. That a/c flew in my squadron (VC-35) in the 50s. Neither here nor there.
I was glad to see the model is available primed without the paint job. I would like to detail it as an AD-4N in gloss sea blue of the 50's. The car doors are no problem. They can be card stock or plastic as they stand proud of the fuselage surface. Maybe I'll come up with a detail kit for a 4n conversion. LOL. Thanks for marketing and excellent model of my favorite plane. I've got a brand new SP 120 dying for a home.
Regards, Jim Gardner
President VC-35/VA(AW)-35 assoc.
