Thannk's for the link's guys ! Gives me the incentive ! Plan on incorporating just about everything I've seen.

Really going to the open stucture behind the cockpit,. Hoping clear pine will be a good substite still pondering the glue and stain compatability . Any other wood selection's please feel free tpo critisize

Pretty positive I've seen some older photos of the stucture without covering. Birds were active duty, and must have been due to repairs in the field , structural rework after combat ect. Was worried about drag

Trying to hunt down a Squadron Signal publication of a E-3 walk around ect. to pick off the details I have a pretty extensive collection of documentation but the 1 on 1 close up'as are pretty elusive. Maybe I can trade off one of my others. My Barn's collection of old Litho's is lacking on the E's.

Like to get good details of the frame work, tail skid, & gear to examine if it does' articulate. Also appears the ribs are going to have to be thinned down a bit. Most likley I'm going to cover it in old school Word Tex and grub it up with lots of coffe grounds. Use Litho plate behind the cowel and start looking for spun salad bowels or dog dishes to scour up and antique.

ANy one with links to site's containing old lithograph prints please chime in.
