lesthegringo Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 I've been prepping Eduard's nice F-4B/C exhaust set for painting, and looking at reference pictures I get the impression that the perforated inner barrel of the thrust augmentor tube has a greenish tinge to it. Not having a handy F-4 in my garden, I can't cross check it, so would like to know if that is just a photographic illusion or whether (like some of the Russian engines) that is a resistant coating on the metal. Most pictures do show the typical combustor products brown and light grey streaking, but there are enough of them that have the greenish tinge to make me hesitate Cheers Les Quote Link to post Share on other sites
airmechaja Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 The J79 varied in the exhaust area from one engine to another but some definitely had a greenish tint. Dean Quote Link to post Share on other sites
