Having your own decals is a big advantage and lets you build a whole fleet of white tops. More to follow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Since I did already the RC-135U and at the moment the NC-135W, which have basically the same antenna configuration, I will build the Rivet Joint in the configuration with the old dish antennas, but with CFM56 engines, as it was seen around 2007.

Excellent Jost. I'm building all the same planes only in braille scale (1/144). I'm using your builds as inspirations for mine. All amazing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
