And not too >expensive, especially compared to most 1/48 scale jets. Regarding the F-117A cockpit, the most recent issue of FineScale Modeler contains photographs of the interior of an F-117 cockpit. Supposedly representative of the standard F-117, they are more likely an early FSD craft as the cockpit has little resemblence to that seen in the current F-117. The cockpit in the mag is full of old analog gauges and no CRT's are seen, whereas the cockpit I saw on TV ( video taken during the gulf war) shows three large CRT's on the main intrument panel. One is central and above the two others which are on either side. I wish I had been recording that show! -- - Mark A. Storin - marks@studsys.mscs.mu.edu
