Re: looking for Modular Fighters?

Thank U all for providing me with the info on these..	  It is too bad
they 
are pre FB book with Jerry mods I think they seem to work in close

I will be sitting down and working up a pair of fighters which can be
modular 
set-up.    Will post them when I'm done.

Have a Good One,
