Cockpit Air Intake
The P-47 cockpit was fed fresh air through a scoop on the leading edge of the right wing. Check
your P-47 3-view to verify proper location. See the following photos on installation:
270 mm
The scale location for the scoop inboard edge is 270mm from the wing center. Use a Dremel tool
and abrasive bit to cut out a relief in the wing leading edge.
CAUTION: DO NOT CARVE into the carbon fiber wing tube which is located about 1.5
cm behind the leading edge.
Some sanding of the Air Intake will be necessary for a perfect fit. When satisfied, epoxy into
position using masking tape to hold firmly in place until set. The modeler may choose to cut out
air duct, paint interior flat black and add screen for additional realism.
