Reuben - I too will be converting the Sea Vixen to the FAW2 version (elongated booms). If you are in my shoes, as my friend tells me all the times, we are running out of birthdays. I hope not tooooooo soon, I am stalled with the Avenger, still trying to get auto body shops to let me do some painting. Military base auto hobby shops are a dying breed, they always had a paint booth, Been to all the bases around here. Guess the California effect is spreading across the country (K&B paints.). Currently trying to spray both cockpits. Chic
