  1. Hi Guys Joe while doing some research I found this! A pic of a Crusader (F-8E I think) "all down" And this drawing from the detail and scale publication I want to do a F-8J, do you think it would be very wrong to do it "all down"? Best regards Filipe
  2. Hi Guys Thank you for the input Joe, sorry for not using the proper names, I tend to call everything slats! :) I now the difference but rarely use the correct names.

  3. Hi Guys Can anyone tell me if, with the wing lowered, the F-8J Crusader could be parked with flaps and slats deployed? Wouldn't the slats hit the sidewinders? Any photos? Thanks in advance Best regards Filipe

  15. Hi Guys Thank you Polo. Here´s a small update on Von Werra machine, I´m using the Eduards Pe for the academy kit and I´ll use their masks for the Hasegawa kit aswell.
