Default RE: Cessna UC-78 "Bobcat 3D project

Hi B.

I'll be doing some of those animations, for sure, and will post a link here when they're ready. I'm almost finished with the last two "build" items, which are the cabin interior, and rivets... LOTS of rivets. Have to add some more around the overhead windows, and on the engine cowlings, then I'm ready for "paint". (images attached)

I believe there are fewer than 50 T-50's flying today, but more than that exist as "parts" planes. As a result of communicating with Terry Sullivan so much on the research, I'm now doing his web site at http://www.cessnat50.org/ and you can find more info there, on the "Links" page. Terry, who is in the final pre-flight stages on his T-50, is sending a new batch of photos tomorrow, which will appear on that site in the next few days. His is painted in the squadron colors of his father's B-17 group, (image attached, which is how his T-50 looks today) and that's how mine will be done too.
