  1. There are markings for the" One " squadron and the " Bat" squadron. The small picture on the instruction sheet shows using the large stars on a "One" squadron aircraft. These had a red rudder with a blue and white chevron. There are instructions for all the stencils but not much on the layout of the upper markings.

    Again any help would be appreciated.

  2. Thanks Gil

    I have tried to find some upper markings layout for the scheme with the large stars. The stencils should not be a problem but the layout of the markings is a concern. I will try to and find something

    for references.

    Thanks again Gil

  3. Hello All

    I am constructing a1/48th Israeli F-4E with very large Star of David markings. These came in Isradecals IAF-59. However I cannot find any reference to the topside marking placements or stencils applied to this aircraft.

    If anybody has any suggestions I would appreciate them. I have Googled the Internet with no success and I tried contacting ISRAdecals last week, with no reply from them.(bit disapointing)

     

    Thanks Bill

  4. The Ansaldo A.1 Balilla was a key part of the 1920s era with the Poles flying quite a few of these. I had never been able to find a 1/48th scale kit of this aircraft.

    Thanks to the WW I SiG in Telford I obtained the Karaya Ansaldo A.1 Balilla resin kit.

    Great details but still a resin biplane. Lucky for me there are a couple of posts on the Internet regarding this aircraft and were of great help

  5. Hello

    This is a model built because a a cool publication,Kagero BF-109 A-D. I used the decals included with this publication. I have found the decals with all the Kagero Publications to be very well done and great to use. Same on this one.

    The nose was a resin insert from Mr Barry Numerick and came from the Classic airframes BF-109. I used Eduard pre-painted seat belts. I corrected a few items such as fuel filler and rear antenna connection.
