Nick, the vertical with St Michael looks great! I can't wait to see the bottom when it is finished.

Great work! Congratulations....

This motivates me to continue building my own Mirage, but i am super lazy at the moment.

Cheers

Thank all, Joe I don't think I will do the bottom side.
the picture that I have I can't get it to blow up to the dimensions that I want, it gets to faded.

Finally I finished with all the painting and my picture at the bottom of the airplane now I’m going to work on the engine and then just setting up the airplane and I’m ready for a test flight in about two weeks , once I get my pipe from Joey.

Looking good! did you have the colors prepared specially for you? or is it just off the shelf Rustoleum? If so, which rustoleum colors did you use?
Thanks
Jack

Hello Tassos, Three things happened One my airplane was out of trim, it wanted to pitch to the left and at the same time as the airplane was turning left the cross wind at that time got more Intense and last one my control were in the high rate and very sensitive .
After that it flew perfect. I hope I find someone with a good camera and my next flight so I can post it it was saved by in an angel the angel that I have on the vertical and underneath the airplane. (Αρχάγγελος Μιχαήλ )

Glad it worked out well..... and post some more pictures of your final build, cockpit, undercarriage, power distribution, it'd be good to share with the group.

Thanks, Tassos

Hello Jack I use that rust oleum spray cans from the shelf for the blue color I used a darker tone first and then I went with the lighter tone over it I will post pictures of my set up later .Here is a video for my lights.

Hello!

I am looking for AD Mirage 2000 owners (or builders) who already mounted the large underwing fuel tanks.

I just received them and was looking for ideas for a safe mounting. Unfortunately the manual is not giving any suggestions on how to install. :)

Most sense would probably be to glue blind nuts into the wing an screw the tanks from underneath to rails / wings... ?

Edit: Also would like to know if the mounting rails and the tanks itself have a left or right. I am not really sure and cant really tell by trial fitting or eyesight...

Cheers
T
