DennisTheBear Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Can anyone tell me if there is a set of AM decals in 1/72 for Richard Turner's "Short Fuse Sallee", either cor his P-51B or P-51D, or both. Tried googleing for it yesterday but only came up with 1/48 which is not my scale. TIA DennisTheBear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck1945 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Are you in a rush? There are decals, may be AM or came with a P-51B kit (perhaps the Monogram 1/72 one?). I am away from my decal stash till this time next week. I'll be happy to take a look if you don't find them sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinnAndersen Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 SuperScale 72-874 or Tally Ho P-51 Mustang Aces Part 1 for 312434, a P-51B. Mustang pilot is a great read. Remember that "Short Fuse Sallee" became "Short Fuse" after he recieved a "Dear John" letter from Sallee :-) What kit would you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that, I was having no luck finding it. Either the Academy or the Hasegawa for the B, as I have both, and either the Airfix (new tool) or Hasegawa for the D.

DennisTheBear Posted March 22, 2018 Author Share Posted March 22, 2018 Wahoo! Finally found SuperScale decal sheet 72-874 with Richard E. Turner's markings! Got them from the US at a very reasonable price and an excellent postal rate. Took a reasonable time for the price to get here, so I'm very happy! Thanks Chuck1945 and FinnAnderson for your replies last year. Quess this means I'll have to start a WIP soon. DennisTheBear 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DennisTheBear Posted March 23, 2018 Author Share Posted March 23, 2018 (edited) Well, 2 minutes online and I've found the sheet mentioned by Torbjorn and it should be on its way to me soon, and from here in Oz, not from far off England. Fortunately I have several Mustangs in my stash so I don't have to get another model.
