mig23 Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 (edited) This is going to be based on the Academy KC-97G and most likely will be 53-0106 as there are several good pictures of this aircraft available on the net AND apparently it was the only C-97G specifically tasked with sniffing out SA-2 radar systems.

mig23 Posted May 6, 2012 Author Share Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) Just started work on this one. I left it till last because I knew it was a good kit and I don't have any major changes to make... Cheers, Haydn. Edited May 6, 2012 by mig23 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bdt13 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Way to leave things until the finish. Any photos of the markings you can give us as a preview? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kingoalie Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 This sounds like a cool project. Do you have any good pictures or measurments of the pod underneath the EC-97G? I'd like to build an EC-97G in 1/144th. Good luck with your 1/72nd kit; it must be a beast in size. John Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John Hi John, I'll be going with the ideas suggested by Jennings and Gmat here... http://s362974870.onlinehome.us/forums/air/index.php?showtopic=182147&st=0&p=1699389&hl=ec-97&fromsearch=1entry1699389 OK - so white over ADC gray (or thereabouts)?
