Guest Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 I have recreated the basic art work for the prints following my hard drive crash and have almost finished the first new print. [ATTACH]294[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Miller Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 Hi Casey, I would love a print of Lynden L100/L382G when ever you get a chance and thanks. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 23, 2009 Share Posted June 23, 2009 (edited) Casey, I sent you comments on Heavy Chain via email. Their airplanes were not all alike, and there were changes over the years. I was used to seeing a VHF antenna above the cockpit.... Your work on these prints is excellent. Regards, John Edited June 23, 2009 by TalonOneTF VHF antenna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the pictures I have 12641 does not have the VHF antenna. Casey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I think this one is done. [ATTACH]302[/ATTACH] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 The coloring looks much better. The antenna shown on your print and on the photo you used is a UHF antenna, a little behind the cockpit. The VHF antenna position looked more like this one. P.S. The tail number on the airplane when that photo you used for your print was taken was a bogus number......duh!

Guest Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 The info I got from the person who requested the pint and was involved in the project indicated that the the aircraft was LPN 3991, tail number 64-0507 (12641 in my reference photos.) I have noticed quite a few differences in the antennas and sensor location between the two aircraft. Is the antenna on the belly in the print a VHF antenna? I need to make sure everything is correct before I send it to the printer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NATOPS1 Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) On a 64 Model it should be. Position looks right based on Marine F Model (USAF B Model right????) It may have had a different antenna, this one looks like a newer one.(Avionics System Improvement Program, mid to late 80's) The OLD one was a AFT tapered (swoosh) looking thing... (SORRY that SWOOSH ant was on top, looking at the Gallery helps....) Edited June 25, 2009 by NATOPS1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEFEGeorge Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Casey, always thought your prints were outstanding. Any chance of getting a 6594th TG print? Showing the Bs, HC-Hs, and P models as well as the patch? Something along those lines. Maybe a recovery catch? Helio refuel? etc. Thanks. A 17th TAS print. A 32nd TAS print. A 16 TATS print. Just some thoughts Casey. Keep up the excellent work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some point they relocated the VHF antenna from the belly to above the cockpit, and some of the earlier VHF antennas had winglets, as below.

bobdaley Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 John Is that picture 507? Thanks Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Bob, The first shot I posted (view looking at the right-hand side of the airplane) is numbered 63-7785--that is 64-0507 (Mfg # 3991). The second shot, (view looking diagonally at the left-hand side of the airplane) is numbered 64-0564--that actually is 64-0564 (Mfg # 4074) John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEFEGeorge Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Thanks Casey. I thought that a print with the T.G. and it's 3 models would nice. But just a B or HC during a catch would be great. If you're doing special orders, then I have one. An E model with 4 patches, one in each corner, both 16 TATS, 32nd & 17th TAS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
