I'm including 46 photos of two aircraft. Even = though there's two aircraft I've stuck to the walkaround concept as if = there was one aircraft.

Mainly that's with the placement = of the RHAW gear or plume detectors, and positioning of the position = lights. The old style had them on the main gear sponsons but the new = Mod has them up on the ESSS fairings. This is due to the new Mod having = plume detectors on the main gear sponsons. OK, These pictures were taken at my unit's hangar.
