This is my runway from the south looking north. 1500' X 90' with trees all the way around. At least there aren't any mountains. |
 |
My Ch1 with the new paint on the body done...finally. You can see the door in the side, the top and belly strobes and a red light on the tail. The belly strobe is just hanging from it's wire right now. The light on the tail is a 50w halogen bulb in a truck marker light run by a blinker relay. It comes on when the key switch is turned on. The strobes have their own switch on the panel. |

The belly strobe mount. Checked for non interferance with the elevator control rod. |
 |
The belly strobe sticking out of the skin. |
 |
The top strobe in the fairing behind the BRS. |
 |
Front and rear fairings fasten to the bottom of the BSR . The fairings are made of 1/32" lexan.and are thin enough to be ripped off with the deployment of the BSR. |

More distant view of the same. |
