riffraff Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) I want to build this jet, it is Bob Guildfords, who who was lost at the Hillsboro airshow in 2006. What I am wondering is, what squadron are these markings from, and are they available anywhere? I need them in 1/72. http://i199.photobucket.com/albums/aa175/r...bobguilford.jpg Cheers, Lee Edited October 23, 2010 by riffraff Quote Link to post Share on other sites

peebeep Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 That was one of the options with the old Matchbox kit. Can't say I've ever seen the scheme on an aftermarket set, but then I've never gone out looking for it. If you get stuck let me know via PM I'm pretty certain I can dig a set of Matchbox decals out of the decal bank. peebeep Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You would have to paint the white lightning flash. Hope this helps just a little. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers, Lee Something was bugging me about the photograph and I have at last figured it out. The lumps and bumps on the nose and just below the fin, would seem to make it an ex swiss machine.
