    Need info for F6F Hellcat

    Hi Guys



    I,m building an 84" span Hellcat. It's an ARF kit by CMPro and I want to to put a bit more scale detail into it. I am just wondering if anyone can help me in the right direction to find photo's, websites or drawings to help me achieve this. The F6F is such an awesome plane. I want mine to be as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Happy landings
    Tim

    Let me know what you are looking for and I can probably help. There is one in the museum where I volunteer. You can also visit my website and use the search feature to find pictures of the F6F.

    Other than that Eric is the best person to speak to so he can get you pics of the CAF one.

    Thanks Tim Glad I could help. That very Hellcate was flying around Camarillo all day yesterday. I don't know if someone was qual'ing or if they were doing maintenance flights, but it sure was good to see and hear!

    If you need anything close-up, let me know. I can run over to the airport at lunch to snap off a shot. I work 2 minutes away.
