Nice!
Are you going to put decals on it or leave it the way it is? I wonder if it's the same GP F4U 40 kit we are building here. http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_8977815/tm.htm Did GP make this kit that long ago?

I need to get the decals on it will look a lot better. I looked back it looks like i bought this kit in 1994 it is a great plane kit. How do they fly? I hope to get it in the air soon but i want be the first to fly it.

Brian The kit is at home and I not there till some time next week so I'l try to rember to dig it out. I did obtain a set of century jet retracts last time the dollal was good . so last year I must have thought of getting back to the project. I have a bad habbit of starting kits getting so far then start a new one.It dosent worry me that I have so many kits started every now and then one gets finished. Just had a think and I think I have 9 started. Some are big builds EG The mustang is the gold TF and theres a TF spitfire as well Its bed time hear or I give you moor info I might even take photos of all the started ones and post them. I got to do somthing to make a stop to the habbit. Off to bed. 12:18 over hear Yours Paul...
