Hi all :

Surely some of you can give me an hand finding adequate photos/scale docum, so i can complete my GP-LANCAIR ES (see enclosed pic's), keeping the GP standard paint scheme.

I've modified the kit introducing a cockpit with instruments and pilot, based on the enclosed photos.

Now (as you all know) i need a photo from a real plane (wherever in the world) with a similar paint scheme, what i didn't manage to find up to now. []

Good luck in your search, you broke the Cardinal rule of documentation. Your supposed to get your docs first and then build the plane. It always helps..

You are completly right, BobH [][]

.... However i didn't intended do scale it, but 'some guys' (one of them is in the ground) insisted .....

But , with «... a litle help from my friend's ....», i'm sure we shall manage !!!

Thanks in advance for any help you can supply.

Antonio, I sure wish I could help you with a good picture but I don't have any that I know of. I'll look throught some old EAA magazines and see what I can find. Hopefully some one will be able to help you out.

I only saw one ES on there and it was the burgundy/gold scheme.
Also look through the galleries at the Lancair Owners & Pilots Association (LOPA) at [link=http://www.lancairpilots.org]Lancairpilots.org[/link]
Sure would be nice to have some windows that were not so dark as it is a shame to hide your unique interior like that.
Nice to see others have taken to my "Baggage door/servo tray" mod. I continue to find it a great benefit as it eliminates adding tail weight.
(Mimoore...would like to see some shots of your mod to that area BTW. I believe you used my "glass-over-the-inside" technique?)
We been having fun with the new spirit. Been meaning to get some video posted.
Good Luck!

Fancy-Bob's Aircraft documentation lists several photo packs for various Lancairs. He lists an agent in Spain:Alfredo Lopez (94) 464-83-25 or you can possibly obtain them directly. PS The model looks beautiful! JIM
