  • Hi Rex: F-4 coming along great! I like your nose gear door detail with the AOA indicator and landing light. I did put lights behind those holes on my F-4N and used colored plastic for lenses for the red, amber, and green lights that would show up so the LSO could help give commands to the pilot to be sure he would land safely and ideally hit the no. 3 wire. Those are cool details.

    A good friend of mine I flew with with the airlines in a previous life was an LSO and talked to lots of different types of planes trapping on the boat, including F-4s. He was rated as a pilot on the E-2 Hawkeye with the rotating dish during his time in the navy before the airlines. So he got a bunch of traps himself during that time.

    Good hand on painting the stripes on the overhead ejection seat handles. Nice and straight. Judges should like that.

    Cheers

      Best, Steve
