Can anyone help me determine the correct location and type of lights on this plane. All of the pictures I can find do not have any shots of lights where I can see the exact locations or relative sizes. I would like to add scale lighting and I need to know if the available lighting kits are the right size.
Thanks,
Mark

I have a KMP 336 that I will be putting lights on. I'm going to use 10mm LED's for the landing lights and 5mm LED's for the nav, stobe and beacon. The lighting positions vary from model to model. The beacon and tail nav light are on the top and bottom of the right vertical stab. The landing lights are either in the L/H wing just outboard of the strut (early model) or in the cowling (late model).

I will post pictures as soon as the project is done. Right now I am getting slight glitching from the triple strobes in the wing. I want to clear that up before I finalize the installation.
I did cut corners and decided to go with a scale look instead of making all of the pieces to be truly scale. Two setbacks were finding lenses in a scale size and fitting the landing lights so the muffler didn't hit them. The cowl on this KMP bird is large, but the actual usable space is very limited.
