Down the Production Line

My version of the FH-1 Phantom is approaching roll out. The FH-1 was not a very successful early jet, only about 60 were produced. It suffered from lack of power similar to the Vought Cutlass and other early jets that were powered with early axial flow jet engines that never came close to their specs. I modeled it anyway because I like the simple straight forward lines of the craft.
Someone in this forum (before the crash of 08) provided data that said the FH-1 had one landing (approach) light that was controlled only by by the tail hook position; no other switches. Rob Barendregt of the Netherlands was kind enogh to create a simple little XML gauge that turns the Landing Light on-off depending on tailhook position. Many thanks, Rob!
I hope to release it in about 10 days or so, but at my age things are definitely slowing down!
