HOW TO REMOVE THE COCKPIT SECTION OF YOUR F-14

i've discovered that the battery panel also comes off on the regular version as well, this can aid getting apart the nose section for those who wish to send the plane off to be repainted. instead of prying or pulling it from the main fuseage. this way you just stick a butter knife between the opening below the two tabs and all i had to do was twist a little and it popped off pretty easily. this way you don't have to worry about damage to the paint job. i'll post pics when i get my new tomcats, as i sold the one in the pictures so please be patient and i'll edit this as soon as i can and perhaps post a video to further help anyone who needs it. or if someone who has used my method could post pics of how to do this, it would be greatly appreicated. IF YOU HAVE TROUBLE GETTING IT OFF THE REGULAR WAY TRY USING PETROLEUM JELLY.
