HI GUYS well ive fitted on them landing lights so thats one worst part over as it was hell tryin to keep the holes for the wires small an to get the wires through the fusealarge an out the other end treid 6 times on one side a about another four times on the other side but they are now in an refitted their resistors as got the shakes an jen said you should have come an got me but i cant keep askin her all the time got to do it myself an a pic here looks a bit rough but all will be well when its all sprayed up light grey NEXT to try an spray white in the air intake an got them main undercarts fitted had to do a bit of cuttin on the fusealarge an fit a longer screw as the one tamyia supplied was way to short

Nice work on the navigation lights Chris. The landing lights will be inside the nose gear door.

The previous builder used white inside the exhaust because the petals on General Electric powered F-16Cs have a white or cream ceramic coating. They need a bit of dirtying up though
