Well mine is ready to fly. I just need some nice weather. I am hoping that Sunday may bring some better weather. It's pouring rain and about 40 mph winds right now. Ready to go!

hey guys love the build thread the B is one of my favorite Mustang types, I figured I would drop this link for pilots.
I was getting so much of a ribbing at the field for my pilotless warbirds so I ordered a couple of these from nitromodels http://www.nitroplanes.com/rcmodelpilot5.html I did need to repaint the jacket,scarf and the mae west vest,to proper colors, but was really surprised how good they looked for the price,I did each one a little different,for my H-9P-40,and my Mustang.

the A,B,C,is the dimentions of the pilot there's only the one size pretty well suited for 60 size planes.
if you click the link and look to the right of the page it lays out the dimentions,A-height,B-width,C-depth, the one I posted a pic of is in my mustang Mr. clean cut.
I did the one for my P-40 with a Errol flynn mustach and a little diferent paint color on the vest,they come painted with a green jacket,grey scarf,and a red life preserver,go figure.
Clair Chennault didnt mind a little facial hair as long as you shot down planes and came back alive.
