New to the forum here folks, but I hope you can help us out...
Our Museum (russellmilitarymuseum.com) has acquired an F-15 but we have to go to Marrietta, GA and bring it home. What I am looking for is info or manuals for removing the wing,stabs etc... I have moved many aircraft so this isn't new but I like to have a "heads up" as far as procedures/tools, etc. before I get to involved with the project. And, I haven't done an F-16..yet. We have an F-15, F5/T38s, f-84, (moved an F-14 for the navy) just to name a few...
Thanks in advance for any help!!!

Quick question guys... We are putting together our tool chest and are wondering if anyone can tell us which fasteners are used to hold on the panels covering the wing bolts? what tools are needed to remove those? Are they torques bits? or the "nazi" bits?..
Thanks...

| The wing strake panels are cross tip "nazi" screws. You will need at a minimum #4, #6, #8 and a #10 and even bigger to remove the panels to access the stab actuator bolts. you will also probably need a #8 hex (9/32 I think). I would definitely have spares of all of them, they tend to brake. |
