Country: | Yep, thats the one, I circled the unit, but I see he put a moving map in the aircraft, from what I remember there used to be a large artifical horizon there. One would say that the GPS takes away from the "originality" of this aircraft, personally if you're going to fly the thing you want some good nav equipment!
Oh - I see he also put a transponder in it as well!

But they did use them in Wake Island and Flight For Freedom. One of the things I read is that they used them as Zeroes! I think there are only 2 or 3 of the SCWs left.
