Copy that
I am contemplating doing it with the flight deck attached just so, I'll git 'er done...

This is what happens when you've had serious health problems which has prevented me from slappin' plastic around. Well, here lately, I've been slowly getting back to it!

Hippy just do the areas that you can see from the hangar doors, strategically position aircraft inside so that view is limited, problem solved.

Just took a tally on the aircraft
There's like Roughly 80 aircraft for CVW-14. AS it stands right now, I
need: Have:
24 F-4Bs 22
12 A-1H 10
14 A-4Cs 5
14 A-4E/Fs
6 RA-5Cs 6
6 A3Ds 6
4 E-2As 4
3 UH-2A/Bs
Now the COD, I think is similar to the E-2 but, w/out the radome?
I'm gonna try to get some work done this weekend

The COD is a fatter fusalage and the elevator is straight accross where the E-2 has some dihederal. It is not as easy a mod as one would guess.
