That is one of the PDF files I was able to get in my research to build this F-14. These drawings belong to "Jim" at Hobby Barn and they are copyrighted. That is why I have not shown them on this thread. They were sent to me by someone who actually should have known better than to send them and I am sure "JIM" would not be happy if he knew who that was.

NO I am not building from these drawings or the one you show. If you look at it closely, you will see that it is for a "A" version of the F-14, is actually inaccurate in some areas, and the whole engineering of it is completely different that what I will be doing. The construction techniques he uses are as old as this drawing. 1988 And trust me, there will be no glo powered Turbax's in my F-14.

I did however start this project with the lazer short kit that was made from these plans. I have covered already in this thread how successful that was. LOL

Hang on !!! You are not going to see any F-14 built like this one I am building.
