Out of the whole forum, this made me laugh the hardest. I have a brake line flaring kit rather than a regular flaring kit. Thanks for the tips.

I spoke with a couple techo's at work yesterday to get some information, they were serviceing hydraulic lines on one of the hornets... maybe I should get some milspec parts for my Sandman.

Now that in itself is funny! Getting aeronautical blokes to build brake parts. You'll end up with reverse thrust on your V8 and a big flap on the roof to bleed off road speed!

Nothing like overkill when it comes to military equipment. The old Hornets we have were ordered straight off the back of the US Navy orders. So unlike some other countries we have carrier qualified landing gear on our versions. I've only briefly looked over the new F/G models but these have come straight from Boeing so they could be different.
Sorry I have strayed off topic.
