More info???

Again i would like to mention that i am excited -just like RCAP- with my new "discovery" -that is your site- not only because of the wealth of information, but also because of the members' willingnes to share knowledge..

1. RCAP, i am a little confused with your statements " ...got the rear hatch wrong, oops...."
Could you please explain?


2. "The 4th escape hatch was buit into the pilot canopy in the centre." Is it shown in the diagram Micdrow posted?? I can't locate it....
Could you please explain?


3. Furthermore, does anyone have any idea if it would be possible for the whole crew to escape from one hatch??
(if for example the others were damaged and couldn't be opened)


4. And a last question...

Could the access door along the RH side of the fuselage also be used as a parachute hatch??
If so, then was it also ejected? If not then from which side did it open (lookng from the inside to the outside)

Thanks again to everyone...

P.S. RCAP fantastic models on your site...Marvellous job...
