    I'll do that just for grins a little later on. As far as I am aware yes, the interior colors were the same.

    As is my usual procedure when starting a new build, I spray paint most of the interior parts so they will be ready for assembly. Makes the build go smoother (at least for me it does).

    Can't say as the sheet hasn't arrived yet.
  4. JohnB
    Yes
  5. JohnB
    Agreed Carl. I'm pretty sure it's a -1a.

    Number 135 Jeff.

    Okay guys. I've checked the Tamiya -1a kit and see it really wouldn't be too difficult to clip the wing tips, etc. SO......it's time to build a FAA Corsair. I've ordered the Eaglecal decal sheet and intend to do the overall GSB a/c from HMS Formidable. Stay tuned! LOL

    Thanks Gaz. I'm glad you like it!

    Thank you Dennis. Now if I can just find the kit I might be able to cannibalize the wing tips, etc.

    Thanks Bill. I'd like to see a picture or two if it's no trouble. No hurry though.

    Thanks Bill. I wonder if the tips would fit the Tamiya kit? I'll check around and see if I can find one somewhere. Thanks again. No luck so far. Ebay, Hannants, Sealmodel, and Litlinx were no go's.

    Much appreciated Jeff. I'm glad you like it.

    Thanks Phil. I've been considering another Corsair but I have 14 built already and really hate to do another. However, I do love the Corsair!

    Thank you Martin! It was quite the challenge for sure.

    Thank you Harv. I'm happy with the results but also happy to be done with it! LOL
  16. JohnB
    Thanks! It took a lot of "beating" too LOL.

    Thanks Gus!

    Thanks Rowdy. I appreciate that!

    Thanks Hubert. Yes they were but at some point they just HAD to be fairly clean! LOL
  20. JohnB
    Thank you Rockie! Very much appreciated.
  21. JohnB
    Finally done with this one. I hope y'all like it.
  22. JohnB
    All done. Check RFI.
  23. JohnB
    I too find it puzzling that no one has done this. It looks to me it would be a simple thing to make and would see a good bit of interest. Maybe folks are figuring Tamiya will issue a FAA version which I think would be a real possibility. Time will tell I suppose.
  24. JohnB
    Thanks for the info! I will check this out.
  25. JohnB
    I'm considering a FAA Corsair for a future build and am wondering if anyone makes the wing tip sets for those a/c. I have heard it's easy but I'm lazy LOL. Thanks in advance for any help.
