Glad to hear from you again Brian, my dear FB friend. You will have noticed how "slow" the process was made. There is much information provided by several friends of the forum, who enriched the informative-historical content of the B-25, new tips and technical recommendations on modeling and specific observations of some errors or omissions on my part. Another nice piece of work with very positive results.Luis sorry i been away to long and missing out on your Mitchell build ! Its is looking really great.

Thanks Geo, you are one of the protagonists in this thread. "Bravo" also to you my friend.Bravo Lius
You´re right Chad, there is no date that does not arrive, nor a deadline that is not met!Excellent execution my friend! Glad to see her finished at last!
My respected UK Master, Your knowledge and experience contribute to my learning in each new project I start. Thank you for being present and sharing it. I hope to continue learning from this huge and exciting hobby, as well as military aviation.Excellent work Luis, and yes, those two small parts are venturi tubes, which were used to 'power' certain pressure instruments, such as the altimeter.
IMHO those are external(called "free") air thermometer tubes. We see them on C and D models, but not on H and J anymore (I don't know where were they positioned on those models). They are 2 on the bomber versions AFAIK the one goes to a gauge in the cockpit and the second to a bombardiers gauge....those two small parts are venturi tubes, which were used to 'power' certain pressure instruments, such as the altimeter.
Great info and pics CATCH 22, tks... B-25G has only one tube, not 2!!! There is no bombardiers gauge! ...
Thank you for your words Andy, it will be a compliment that can serve as a query or reference for someone else. It contains very interesting information and in many stages I only replied to your recommendations, and anyone can carry them out.Great clarification.
Luis-Carlos, this is an excellent build that will grace these pages for many years. Congratulations on a job well done. Looking forward to your next project.
I can distinguish it in several photos ... The version I chose of the 2 that includes the kit, brings only that piece with two tubes for both versions. In my ignorance, I just followed the instructions. In addition they were very nice and will be another little detail with which I can live.Yep the G variant of B-25 had the single one there...
Cool! Glad I could help. Feel free to PM me anytime you have trouble with such translations in the future, I enjoy other languages. I might learn something too!Thanks Chad, now my English got new meanings to "el cofre frontal y sus puntales de apoyo" in Spanish.
Gracias compadre
