I can afford a dozen kits, but I can't afford the extra room and display cases to house them!

 

Great stuff, Kursad!


Steve, where there is a will, there is a way!  🙂

Kursad,

One slight correction to your USAF C-130 Decal sheet CD72117:

  • HC-130N Hercules 59-5827 [should be 69-5827]

I have noticed that these are all early model Herks: B, D, E & N (modified E). Any plans for a second sheet with later model Herks?

 

K/r,

Dutch

The markings on the sheet are still correct though, as an FYI: she became a MC-130P with the 9th SOS at Hurlburt Field, FL in 2006.

True, but the markings were completely different at that point.  Gunship gray scheme, n'est pas?

It's a bit early to talk about a later model Herk sheet, although I am sure I will do it at some point. This first sheet needs to sell well first.

Fair enough!  I wasn't complaining, just curious.  I hope it does sell out quickly.

Got mine, great sheet, time to break out a C-130 kit or 3!

Brother Ray, Are you opening up Lockheed-Down Under?  As many Herks and Orions as you are pumping out, I'd say they owe you royalties!  K/r, Dutch

Yep, too many Lockheeds (P-3s and C-130s) and not enough display space!

Let me start by saying great sheet, with great options. I love the C-130 sheets you have done in the past (Guard Herks is awesome), and look forward to planned and future C-130 sheets. I did notice something on this sheet for the 23rd Wing aircraft: decal 23 the ACC tail badge has Tactical Air Command in the scroll. As Air Combat Command was formed in 1992, and all C-130's were in ACC at the time. Is this an error? I have checked my references and have not found any 23rd Wing C-130's with TAC badges.

Best regards-
