Title: P-40D/E/K rear window frame
Post by: warhawk on December 15, 2018, 07:51:26 PM
Hello,

I am in a process of correcting an inaccurate kit, and would like to make new crescent-shape panel that frames the rear glass.
Could anyone please help me with some original factory drawings of this panel, marked on the picture below (or P-40D/E/K rear glass itself) in developed view, so I can copy its complex geometry?

Thanks in advance!
Aleksandar

These may not be factory but are the best I know of right now!

Thanks for the suggestion!
I know the author uses factory drawings, so I'll e-mail him.
