RE: Skymaster F14 Tomcat
Ok, I think it is the pic setting. I cropped out the traced image of the original (the traced image that was submitted above) and rotated it, it allowed it to sit correctly lengthwise. I have put both the images so the difference can be seen and also a scale image of the full scale bird.
Pic #1 Scale F-14 Schematic
Pic #2 Traced picture rotated (looks correct lengthwise)
Pic #3 Original trace from original pic. (Looks stubby)
Great Job Anton! Looking good!

RE: Skymaster F14 Tomcat
Any updates on the progress of this kit? or the big F-86 - Skyhawk 
Not sure how many flyers out there will be able to take on one of these F-14 kits and afford to engine it, like the others posting before me, a smaller scale version for twin 14 to 18 pounders or single 30 pounder turbine would have sold like hot cakes given the current lack of reliable manufacturer + good quality F-14 kits.
Anton, is there any chance that you will add a 'News' section to the Skymaster web site for the latest info? hahaha, you cannot blame us for asking keep up the good work.

RE: Skymaster F14 Tomcat
I am with you Daivd, I would love to have a large A-6!! Jet Mart makes one but a little too pricey for my taste. The problem with the A-6 is the short distance from turbine to end of the pipe and it is being bifurcated. You cant make it too small or else it would not work. Man but I want one bad, loaded down with 24 MK82's!!!!

RE: Skymaster F14 Tomcat
Interesting, that must be new, I emailed them a little while ago and they said they were building one for a customer who backed out and that the A-6 they were working on was up for sale. Kits they said wouldn't be available until the project was finished. Hmmm, that sucks!!
Shoot, even the kits are getting hard to find....[sm=thumbs_down.gif]
