My entry served on the U.S.S. Cabot (CVL-28) with VF-29. I trolled the web and books and all I could find was a pic showing "15" with my "14" in the background

OK, we begin, at Step 5. Step 1 has you remove chunks of the consoles to add PE so while doing that I worked on the engine. Not a fan of PE but it came with the kit so what the hey. Still need to tie down the wiring (PE) and tidy up the the two placards (also PE). I still have half a bottle of my favourite crank case blue grey paint by Polly S. Bottle has to be 35+ years old. I'll get a start on the innards shortly
