Default RE: T-6A Texan II 75-91 ARF build suggestions

flyncoastie,
I haven't started mine yet, but plan to replicate the T-6B also. I live out on the beach and recently took some reference photos of some T-6Bs parked at PNS. Ieven saw an all-yellow T-6B, reminiscent of the T-34B from the 1950s. The new glass displays (PFD & MFD)should be easy to do. My plan is to remove the blue covering and replace with Ultracote. I have a roll of orange in the shop. The Lustrecote paint would be easier, but I hate to think what it would look like over the blue Ultracote after some time. By the way, I am a convert to Ultracote...MUCH easier to work with than Monokote, but I suppose they each have their high points. My project is a few months away, but I will post some pics when I get started.
Good luck with yours!
Pat
