Just discovered that the spot I just puttied, yeah that's where a pylon goes. At least the putty was easy to remove. Revells instructions are clear as mud on where this goes exactly. I found pics that show where it's supposed to go. It's the pylon that has the targeting pod on it under the intake.

Oops.....

Glad it is an easy fix to the fix, and all that.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Seems like a odd place to put it but I know nothing about this subject.
March as one, Don't look back
Odin's sons... Attack!
Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall

Woops! Tis a good job you noticed!

I think that sort of thing is pretty common these days, I think the Eurotiffie has something similar.

Nice save. However, the Tiger Meet schemes were never fully armed for the occasion. Keep it simple. Belly tank and maybe a wingtip pod is all you really need.
