Inspired with a build started by fellow modeler Bill Dye a few years back, here is my rendition of the prototype RF-84F     YRF-84F Build Thread    

 

And, here are the finished pics:

Again, thanks to fellow modeler Bill Dye, who inspired this build.

 

As usual, it's not perfect, but it's better than the one I had before...

Very cool conversion! It's really nice to see some old-fashioned kit-bashing going on! Thanks for sharing!

 

Rusty: The round circle on the canopy connects to a round device on the canopy ledge. It was present on the F-84G's, and may have had something to do with helping partially pressurize the cockpit, but I cannot remember for sure. In any case, I believe the round area provided direct access to the device.

 

GIL :cool:

Ed,

The finished pictures appear to be missing as well as from the Britmodeller forum article.
