    That OV squadron you had(commanded?)...was that the (Navy) Black Ponies out of Bhin Tuy(I think it was Bhin Tuy) down in 4 corp? I used to work with them covering the convoy up the Mekong supplying Phnom Penh. They carried 5" Zunis. Very good stuff. That was in 70/71

    Interesting times...

    Thanks Stanley for recommending George Race.

    George's access covers sound like a good way to gain entry behind the panel

    for maintenance purposes.  The windshield will need to be removed first, but that part is easy in a 701.

    The FRONT TOP SKIN I believe is structural, so if we install access panels we would need to add some kind of reinforcement for the remaining material?

    There are other interesting items on George's webpage!
