F-84G canopy

Anybody have a good photo of the “shelf” under the canopy of the F84G? (red circle) All the photos I’m finding , the glare off the plexi obscures the view. One sketch I found seems to indicate there is a dome ( ADF antennae?) and a reel that, I presume, is a tensioner for a cable, for when the canopy is open/closed. Looks like its black. (?) The dome? Radome tan? Also, the decking under the canopy (green line) … looks like first foot aft of the seat is OD (like the rest of the antti-glare panels) followed by black. (photo 2) I’d have thunk it would be interior green, like rest of the cockpit area, seeing it would not be a glare issue in flight.

You probably know these already :roll_eyes:

Been there, done that…
I have a feeling you will like this one:

I’ve found it in the book “F-84 Thunderjet in detail” by Bert Kinzey from the “Detail & Scale” series.

Hope it helps, have a nice day!

Thanks ,Guys. The line drawing I saw was nowhere near as detailed. What color would you call that radio compass cover? Of a related nature … anybody need a resin (not sure what brand) F-84 cockpit and Aeroscale decals? Came with the kit and I wont be using them. If interested PM me and we can work something out.
