  1. Steve, Awhile ago you were looking for reflective strips for emergency vehicles. Today I found on Scalemates the following: go to the "search " and type in Strips, and you'll get a lot of stripes for decals and such. HiQ even makes the red and whites stripes for the back of firetrucks. they even have the ted and yellow like they put on the rear of firetrucks. they arent reflective but I belive the will work. Actual reflective striping would be too thick for models.
  2. Des anybody have any information about the civilian Sea Kings? Looking for a book on the subject. Thank You in advance.
  3. Does anyone know if Whirly Bird models has been taken over by anyone? Thank You in advance
  4. My question is this. Revell/Germany released several versions of the Sikorsky CH-53. Which one would be the latest updated helicopter, the CH-53GE/GS or the CH-53GA? Thank You.
  5. The title says it all. I need the instructions for the first issue. Thank You
  6. Thank You to all for the drawings and photos. It has helped me greatly.
  7. Does anyone have any photos or drawings of the pilots viewing window on the JU-87 Stuka?
  8. Tonight, I was watching Battles of WWII in color on the Smithsonian Channel. Did anyone else see the tropical JU-87 with the red and white snake painted on the left side? Does anyone know if it was on both sides? Thank You in advance
  9. This is probably a stupid question but: Can someone tell me what the bare metal patches are on the inside of the engine nacelles are? I was watching Air Warriors The P-38 and never noticed them until this show. They are oval shaped. Thank You, in advance.
  10. Steve, I don't know if you remember me, but you gave me great information on the BO-105 years ago. The markings on the real vehicles are reflective tape, usually made by 3M. I was in law enforcement for 20 plus years. Try Manny's diecast they usually have decals. but they are not reflective.
  11. Was there ever an Artic Red? What was the time period? What were the time periods of the fluorescent colors? What services used fluorescent orange? What services used fluorescent red/orange? I thought at one time this was covered, but I couldn't find it. It could have been on Scale Rotors, long ago. Thank You in advance.
  12. Does anybody know why the Pilatus PC-6 Turbo Porter has upturned wingtips? What are the upturned wingtips supposed to do? I know Cessnas have downedturned wingtips for better lift.
  13. The books say the Mk. III A (SD) had luminous color painted on top of the steps on the ladder, does anybody know if the were glow in the dark slime green or painted with flourescent colors? If so what color of floursecent paint? Thank You in advance
