Looks great Karl, how'd you get the MG covers to finally fit? Have one in the stash as well!

i glued some small tabs of plastic inside the where the cover meets the fuselage to help keep the edges glued down
i also found i had to sand down the top part of where the cockpit meets the gun bay so the rear of the cover would line up correctly if that makes sense :rolleyes: :D
i found you have to be very, very careful with all the engine and MG fittings or everything forward of the cockpit will be out of whack !!!!
 
Thanks for the explanation!
 
Yikes! That looks like a handful! Good job so far!
 
I will get off my behind and post some pics of the Gannet soon. However, I need to acquire a decent camera and have a slightly less hectic life in '1:1' first :oops::rolleyes:
 
see ya next FALL! :lol:
 
Too many. Mk.22 and MM my priorities but I keep adding deals to fill my USS Yorktown group. I want to do one of every type that served on both Yorktowns, CV-5 and CV-10. 10 was classified as three catagories in it's history. CV-10 (WWII), CVA-10 (attack) and CVS-10 (anti-submarine), until it was decommissioned and made into a floating museum. I served in HS-4 on the 62-63 cruise.

Wasn't the USS Yorktown CV-5 sunk before the Avenger TBM/TBF went into service, besides those flying from Midway?
