Dutch Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Kursad, What scale? First 1/48, followed by 1/72? K/r, Dutch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KursadA Posted January 31, 2020 Author Share Posted January 31, 2020 I am targeting the new ICM 1/48 scale kit; but it would be a waste of time and money not to scale it down to 1/72 at some point. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mungo1974 Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Anyone able to best guess the trim color on this one. B-26C 44-??653 Wyoming ANG.... I presume it was a target tug but could be wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I presume it was a target tug but could be wrong. I’m wondering if it’s yellow or orange. Doesn’t look dark enough to be a red (compared to the red bars in the national insignia.)
