Thanks Jack. I look forward to your photo posts.

That Bugs Bunny "Super Rabbit" was a great episode. The villain and his horse were flying a T-6 in that one :)

Jack,

Whats the modification that starts under the b on "Super Rabbit" and goes back under the Bugs Bunny character?

Looks like an opening of some kind and a bulge. Gun pack of some kind?

Isn't that a gun mounted under the nose of Super Rabbit? I seem to remember seeing an install like that before.

What you're looking at is nothing.
It's just discolored skin. The package guns have been
removed (the dark area under the orop dome) and forward
of them was a added piece of skin (also removed) which helped
protect the a/c from the blast of the twin .50s.
