Well its getting down to the time that I am going to decide what to do about the electrical wiring.Will it be AC or DC or a combo of both.
Of my other builds I personally prefer the Albatros hangars lighting to the Neiuport.But I have to find a way to simplfy it especially when it comes to bulb changing.The effects that you can achieve with AC lighting is super.I think that maybe I will contact the RR guys as they seem to be way ahead on this.I havent been able to find any decent shades for the bulbs so I will have to resort to making my own.On the Albatros I used small xmas bells which were ground down to a better shape. I have some old aluminium round cigar containers that looks like they may fit the bill.The end that opens has a neet little dome shaped cap that with a few mods would look great.I also want to light up some of the external signage and they could be used there as well.Any other ideas would be appreciated. Cheers! John.
