pinky coffeeboat Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 (edited) Hello, I know Ray at 26decals released the Fly kit with the markings you're after. But, that was a few years ago and he doesn't have any in stock (I too would like to make the DC-9 in those colours). Your best chance could be searching eBay or the buy&sell section here or other places. It could be worth asking Ray if he could laser print a set of those decals. He's normally very helpful like that. I have a slight recollection of (possibly) Aviagraphics or Flightpath releasing a set of BM decals but they may have been the later diamond colours. He did sell the same kit with Aviaco markings which I have, as that was the first jet I ever flew in. Good luck, and if you do find a couple let me know and I'll buy the other!!!

XV571 Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Hi Glyn, The sheet you're after was made by Flightpath, number FP44-311 and it is very good. They also issued a Diamond Scheme DC-9 on FP44-92 along with sheets for the 737-300 (FP44-91), BAC1-11 (FP44-94), Viscount (FP44-313), 707 (FP44-310) and F27 (FP44-312). S&M Decals also released a sheet for G-BMAK, number SM44-73, but I've not seen this so can't say how accurate or complete it is. You might be able to get this sheet from AJ Aviation (formerly The Aviation Hobby Shop/TAHS). I was lucky enough to get one of the last TwoSix DC-9 kits at Telford a couple of years ago when Ray discovered he had a couple of extra sheets . Here's the box on Airlinercafe's database: http://www.airlinercafe.com/photo_6659.details.large. The markings represent the first and last liveries used on the DC-9 as the red stripe was added just before we replaced them with the Fokker 100 and 70.

Airline Hobby Supplies have it listed as 'in stock'. http://kzavn.hupcg.servertrust.com/product-p/fp44-311.htm HTH Dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
