Tom Freidkin's A-36 Apache was located three miles South of me for years. Here are a few dive brake and a few other area images to give you some 1:1 real world close-ups for your conversion. Its not a perfect doc set, but then again...it was free : )
Thanks FM!
Thats exactly what I need.
I had seen some but not all of these images on the web.
Are there any images of the brakes deployed?
LPMcQ,
If we are thinking of the same Monty, he is the guy that runs or helps to run the WOV at WDAM.
He seems a great guy and I will give him a shout. Thanks for the heads up.
WR,
The main things I am looking at changing are the wing for the brakes, obviously, and hard points for the bombs.
The Lower cowl to give it that "Allison" look, and the upper cowl for the induction air scoop.
I am thinking I may build the dive brake assy's outside the wing as a separate component to then drop into the wing structure before sheeting. Not sure on this yet. Just thinking about it.
Thanks again all.
