Cool Project...

Some guys here at the Military Museum are restoring an old Cobra gunship (I think it is). We did the teeth and lettering etc all over it for them....that was kinda cool. Now we can add that to our resume...LOL!!!

Paint is too expensive.

If you saw the old coggers doing this restoration, you'd understand why...I don't think they could hold a brush steady enough...LOL!!!

The stick between your legs:
Push = Forward
Pull = Backwards
Left = Left
Right= Right

Stick beside you:
Pull = Up
Push = Down
Twist = Faster

Pedals keep the nose pointed where you want it.

It's doing it all at the same time that's tricky.

Have fun. Looks killer.....really.:rock:
