Jennings Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 KC-135A 58-0085 was the 300th KC-135A off the line in Renton. She was delivered to the 917th Air Refueling Squadron of the 95th Bomb Wing at Biggs AFB, Texas on 14 August 1959. To celebrate, the aircraft was decorated with a special "300th" marking, and named "Paso del Norte". Here's an illustration I did recently showing how she looked shortly after delivery.

Youngtiger1 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Btw, I know it's not related to KC-135 but whatever happened to that C-17 TBird? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jennings Posted October 7, 2015 Author Share Posted October 7, 2015 It's where you saw it. I doubt it will see the light of day. The real world C-17 sheet we did has been a dud sales-wise. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Youngtiger1 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Sorry to hear that Jennings. I don't suppose many modelers are planing multiple build of this kit. I have two and one of them i will do in Qatar markings. It would have been nice to see one in T-Birds markings. Well anyways, I'll support buy a set or two of this KC-135A whenever you get around to it. Mike Quote Link to post Share on other sites

skyhawk174 Posted November 20, 2015 Share Posted November 20, 2015 It's where you saw it. I doubt it will see the light of day. The real world C-17 sheet we did has been a dud sales-wise. Wow, nice Jennings. I really like the day-glo on the KC-136. Makes it looks a little different. As for the C-17 sheet you can expect at least one more sale from me. I have the Revell kit with the Quatar markings but I think yours might be better. I have to put in an order for a few (more than 2) of your sheets. Try to do that soon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
