Details?
« on: December 09, 2009, 05:03:46 PM »
Where do you scale guys find info on the markings and warnings on military aircraft? I'm in the middle of dressing out a NAVY FJ-4B for carrier and my memory isn't good enough to remember the details on our FJ-4's from over 40 years ago. I've searched the web for VA-216 FJ-4 but came up only one photo. It shows the big stuff but I know they had warning, danger and instruction stuff all over the darn things..

I'm cheating on the markings anyway, our A4's were much nicer dressed than the FJ's they replaced so am using the squadron markings from the A4's on the FJ.

Check out the decal sets for plastic models made by Microscale. There are also some other manufacturers who specialize in weird/rare/oddball airplanes.

Plastic kit is where I got details for my Sheek's Spitfire.
