If you are installing brakes and retracts you will need a small air compressor to fill the air tank. You can get one most anywhere, but Bagostix sells one that is really great. Also a fuel can and pump for the kero, your gas one will work if you have one. Some powermax or propane for starting if your motor is not kero start, kerosene and turbine oil, guess that about covers it. You really take less to the field for a jet than for a glow prop plane. hope that helps. and building is just like any other arf except you may want to heat treat the hatch. I put alum tape on the bottom of the stab and on the inside of the hatch. Lowes home improvement, plumbers tape. Bob
