: PS. Rob, did you take any detailed photos of the former Kevin Hooey FG-1D in the jig? Silly question I am sure ;)

Alas, it was gone :( Kevin moved it back to his facility in New York a few months back where the rest of his airframe is being restored. You can see it in this picture behind the TWO main spars.

Incidentally, F4U main spars have been impossible to come by for many years. Someone should seriously consider buying Kevin's extra unit.
