Gregory :) had the G with jet on the tail

Thats them :) knew you'd come through Garry

Well folks yes I know its not British and gasp its payware

But its a bit of bobby dazzler and flies very prototypical - thought I was going to clip a tip taxing at Denham :worried:

Its only 30 bucks US - a steal at twice the price

Leif

Im probably going to get drummed out of the Corp for eschewing a payware, American built product - But you really have to
love the last of Lockhaven :)

Is the one piece windscreen a late mod?.

A lot are like that now but I thought they all had the split screen back in the days :dunno:

Yes Garry

The one piece screen and the circular intakes were the LoPresti mods done to the single Comanche as well


Leif

Doesnt loose anything in translation though

I thought so

The fuse bar the nose and the empenage and outer wings are pretty much the same.

A lot of Daks have a mod as well where the small cockpit window has been replace by a wider V screen panel.

A little less to get dirty and corrroded as well as a bit of extra viz. :)

Must cost a bit if you break it :think:
