Looks like something that came out of Lyle's nose.

Very intricate wiring... what is that, the instrument panel?

Yes sir. Rear instrument panel for second pilot. The wiring faces the front pilot seat. Look at Clint's F-4 Phantom build thread.

Shot a coat of dark gull grey to the bang seats & cockpit areas last night. After it had dried, I noticed it didn't cover well as I must've overthinned the paint. 
Oh well, I'll shoot another coat on tonight.

Re: British phantom FGR.2 "Firebirds"
I am curious on what this is for I know the placement is the center belly tank slot.. I don't know if it's a belly tank or some sort of ECM pod. I've never seen a center line belly tank that looks like that but I plan on using it.
I know this is a cannon pod for the center line belly tank slot. That one is going in my spares bin.

I kinda had a feeling it was some sort of pod. Thank you for the link.

Re: British phantom FGR.2 "Firebirds"
Not a whole lot of updates to report except spray painted white on struts, inner surfaces of gear doors. Times are going to warp speed filled with family engagements, honey-to-dos and my son's graduation coming up in 2 weeks. Just found out my sis isn't coming up for graduation party due to doctor appointments that cannot be cancelled. She's shooting for August 8th week to come so she can spend more time with us.
No point of coming up for 2 days and fly back home for her appointments.
