Here is mine just out of the box..
I intend to build\finish this in 3 weeks time.
Any idea where I can get a good cockpit set? that is, not for 450$ as SM require for theirs...
Thanks,
Zivo

If you would have bought a Skymaster F-5 you could have gotten the cockpit for $99!!!
Come on Dom, lets get this show on the road!! I would think you would have some pull with the shipping guys since you throw them so much business

Hello Woody,
Can you tell me what C/G did you have for your F5 ? because I have one fb F5E with a P160 and I haven't the notice when I receive my F5. I calculated it, but I would like to know if I have a lot of difference with the FB notice.
Thank you
Regards

Hi Rappy.
My F-5E just arrived today so I don't have that info yet.
Check out my new P-160SX. It just arrived. Look at that beautiful compressor.
Well here is a sneak peek at my new F-5E. I will not get over detailed as the jet is not going to undergo major construction till the flying season ends. I may tinker here and there and do some building on rainy days however.
The box was like a vault. Very heavy cardboard. The kit was well packed. Look at the ply support for the box. There was no shipping damage what so ever. My F-5E was custom painted for me by the factory to my specifications and has the full ordinance package as well as preinstalled landing gear, gear doors/cylinders, speed brakes/cylinders and fuel tank plumbing. Take a look at the extensive, high quality hardware package....love those anodized pushrods. Everything is there, screws, tanks, valves the works. That's it for now. Enjoy the pics!!
See ya at the D.O.G.S.

Yes.
I was slashing at the bubble wrap with a razor blade and missed. That hurt. I have a 1 1/4" slice from the knuckle down. I still have good movement though. That's good since I have to fly the L-39 and Panther next week at the D.O.G.S. Rally.

Hey Dom,
Can you please place the cockpit kit inside the plane and send us pictures how it looks? I need to adjust the tubs that came with the plane and want to look how it shoud be, its a little tricky here.
I need to see where to trim it so it will fit the detachable part of the canopy.
Thanks,
Zivo
