lefty1820 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Building a late '42 TBF Avenger of VT-8 and it has the Star national insignia on both sides of the fuselage and both wings upper and lower. What size are the fuselage and wing stars? Got decals on the way for this project. Thanks Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greif8 Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 Hi Jeff, according to my sources for VT-8's White 64, that was photographed on Henderson Field in Sept 1942 the size of the stars are all 40". HTH, Ernest Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lefty1820 Posted February 6, 2015 Author Share Posted February 6, 2015 Earnest, I've seen White 64, any pics of other VT-8 a/c other than 8-T-1? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greif8 Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Hi Jeff, let me look through my sources today and I will see what I can find. I may be able to scan what I find this weekend and post them to this thread. Ernest Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flip marchese Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 40" wing sounds small. consider double checking. Are you looking for six position examples or four? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lefty1820 Posted February 9, 2015 Author Share Posted February 9, 2015 (edited) As my first post on this thread says....all six positions. I've been checking, and checking again, and a 40" star looks good, unless you can provide a source that says otherwise? Edited February 9, 2015 by lefty1820 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
