Nice work on the, well, ALL of it!  Fixing that warping was amazing, so the dihedral issue was simple, by comparison.  But your work is flawless.

What seatbelts did you use here?

Thank you Chris. The belts are the PE ones from the kit. Very flexible for PE belts.

Right with Chris ... what an incredible save and a build to be mighty proud of.

 

Thanks Peter. At one point I figured this one would stay on the SOD indefinitely. 🤪

Just glad you kept at it

My kit is 32014, the B/D version. I found the box, and it has the pods you are looking for. I suppose you need just the pod parts, not the guns ? They are yours, dear sir. Just PM me your address.

Some of the T-28's flown by the Ravens had a metal frame around the Lao national insignia. This enabled a metal cover to be inserted to hide the Lao insignia when they flew in to other countries so it wasn't seen that the a/c was being flown by other than Lao pilots. Pretty neat I think.

Wow, you guys are great. That’s what makes this place such an inspiring site to visit. Incredible generosity. Great to see these days. Following along quietly in the back row, John.

Somehow I managed to lose part of one of the gun pieces. If someone here has this parts tree and can let it go I sure could use it. Otherwise I'm SOL on that style gun pack. Please PM me if you can help. Thanks!!!!!

I'll have a look as well, I tend to keep some spare plastic and throw other bits in a random fashion. Will check in my spares box tonight

Walkways and decaling looks simply flawless. Yup, the T28 isn't giving up the ghost and sure is fighting you all the way.

Thank you Kevin. It came close to staying on the SOD but I decided to give it one more try. Worked out okay.

[JohnB]

Finished with this one.
