Default RE: Turbine or EDF

I received the BVM 80 inch F-86 today. I measured the intake opening and it is 93% of the FSA (fan sweep area) of the TF-8000 fan. I'll have to wait until I get to the East Coast so I can get inside the fuse to see if I can fit the fan/intake ducting but so far, it's looking promising. The Flite Metal is too shiny for my taste (not very realistic) and it's a little rough, but I can always recover it.
