CD72070 - 1/72 C-135 Family General Markings


Recommended Posts

I had to wait to get home from travel to have access to my notes/reference photos. You've got an RC-135V on the recon sheet in form of 64-4841, please also include the extra single static port that is just forward of the right rear cabin door on the "V" versions.

 

Cheers and thanks!

I think there is a different static port on the port side of RC-135S as well - I will add these to the main sheet along with a small yellow corner piece to cut and modify the door outline for RC-135s. The black door outline really is only needed for modern KC-135Rs and will have to come from elsewhere - I included this on the modern KC-135R stencilling sheet which will be available once again soon.

If you reprint the KC-135R Data sheet, fair enough.  I will pick up another one or two. What about including the small black stencil insignia for the Shamu scheme?

CD72070 will be available for sale in the next batch of releases.

The general markings on the C/KC-135 series turned out to be a lot more diverse than I expected. This set basically contains the bare minimums needed for my upcoming SAC-era KC-135A, KC-135E/R and WC/RC-135 sheets (and a Shamu KC-135R sheet in the works). You will notice that it does not contain all the markings you need for a current KC-135R : for this, you will need to get the modern KC-135R stencil sheet which will be available once again with the reprint of CD72030 in a few months.

Kursad - any further info on when this will be out? 

I'm about to drop an order, but if this is a week or two out, I'll wait and save on the shipping!

This is ready but it will not be available until early December, at the same time as the three KC-135 & WC/RC-135 sets. I will soon post photos of the set.

Sounds good Kursad. I’ll place another order later then… going got go head and send this one!

Sold out. I expected it to do well - but I did not expect people to order it by the dozen. The whole print run went out of the door at a furious rate.

 

Since I still have a bunch of KC-135 / RC-135 sets that need this, I will do a reprint soon. Get yours while the resellers still have some.

Well! This sheet certainly qualifies as one of your fastest sellers, n'est pas?
