Hey,all. Not sure if this the correct section but here we go.
In preparation for my Outhouse Mouse paint I'd like to make up a couple of template sizes for the proof pieces. Problem is that is since 909s loss and the fact that Mouse's nose is being rebuilt I don't have access to any Forts for measuring the various distances between ,say back edge of the bombardier's perspex to the pitot tube. Or the distance between the navigator's little windows,etc.
Any of you experts know of sites that would provide factory blue prints or scaling plans of the nose section?
Thanks in advance!
 
sorry m8, I looked , but can't find any documents with measurements. This one is the most detailed I found. I don't really know what the numbers mean, but maybe you could find some use for it
 
Here's the pitot tube information. In the drawing above, in-between and just below the first two windows on the left, there is a reference to this drawing - 14-3627 - Channel Inst - Pitot mast support.
