Hey guys... received my gear and they just look outstanding! Regarding the missing part should we notify anyone in particular? I received two sets of the unfinished flavor and wondered if I should email someone or put my name on a list???
Regards,
Mike

By the way the exhausts look outstanding! Have a set on pre-order.
I am going to start modifying the rear of the cat to the "B" configuration in anticipation of getting my greasy hands on your GE F-110 nozzles. One related question:
Did you have any trouble getting the old TF30 nozzles off? One thing the Chinese seem to have done right was glue these things together. Don't want to destroy them as I want to rework the old ones for a future "A" with one engine open and the other closed which is the way you find the Tomcat in most pictures
Any tips?

To get them off its not easy but it is a separate piece just glued in place so sharp and thin tool is perfect just pry it out
Paint First or Assemble?

Jack,
Am cleaning up all the seams and preparing to drill out the holes and have a question. Would you recommend assembling the gear then painting or the other way around.

Hey Everyone!
Jack and I were planning on doing a second help video on the landing gear over the weekend, but he as been out of town on business. Our plan is to do the video on Tuesday of this week, weather permitting. If it is ugly out, it may be Wednesday. It is a top priority for both of us, so rest assured it is on the way.
