T-28 Trojan, AT-28 Nomad

[elmayerle]

I thank you for that offer, but the AT-28F model will be a fair ways off.  The kit and other materials I've gathered for it are all in Texas while I'm in Connecticut, 1600 miles away.  Under these circumstances, I'm in no hurry.  I think the nose without the 75mm gun is problaby the better choice of the two, but as I said, I'm not in a hurry for it.

How about twin Astazous driving co-axial contraprops in a Gannet-like arrangement?

Sure, that would work well, too.  I was going for the wing-mounted engines because that gives you a lot more volume to work with in the nose for guns, equipment, of whatever.  Either way, there's plenty of possibilities to whif.

Nice view of the exhaust heat-plate anyhow!

Also an Air Commado underwing photo-recce pod at 13:50, and an Iranian Harvard in flight at 22:00.  Lovely!
