    How are their kits ?? This could make for a interesting in flight display. I didn't see them on EBay however.

    Hello

     

    I have already built a C-130H (or "E" in that case) and this is easy. The only drawback is the panel lines are not deep enough from my point of view.

    What are the dates the export aircraft were built? Was it after the 1942 aluminum shortage? That was about when it became common to use zinc chromate interiors on US built aircraft.

     

     

     

    Also, I've seen your avatar logo for probably well over a decade now, but for the first time today i zoomed in to take a closer look and realized it is NOT a picture of a styracosaurus head 😄

     

    Hello

     

    The export dates were well before this date as the NEIAF were delivered from 1936 and the Argentinian in 1937.

     

    Yes my avatar is the insignia of the French Air Force Apprenticeship School where I spent two years in the last century.

    1/72 AZUR FRROM Export B-10

    in Classic Aviation Forum

    Posted

    Hello

     

    I am starting building a couple of AZUR-FRROM 1/72 export B-10 and there is a big question about the color inside.

    On the instruction sheet it is written that the B-10 were aluminum with black or bronze green boxes but the export aircraft may have been "green".

    Is there anybody here knowing more about that?

     

    Cheers.

    Hello

     

    The French camouflage at the beginning of WWII had 4 colours most of the time and I use these close combinations from the Gunze Aqueous range:

     

    Topside

    Brown : 50% H84 / 50% H17

    Green : 90% H73 / 10% White

    Dark blue grey : 50% H53 / 40% H305 / 10% H54

     

    Underside

    Light blue grey : 70% H67 / 30% White

     

    you can have two examples here :
