  1. Finally, a colour photograph of RLM 02?
  2. Surely there will be a boxing with RAAF markings. (And French)
  3. So where have these got to? I'm still waiting.
  4. One of the Australian hobby shops has a photo of one of these together with the notation "soon". Kit is Modelsvit 72058. How accurate is the "soon"? Or is this like the Special Hobby Albacore (SH72152), still available for backorder?
  5. Yes, I think I'll need D-ISLU for my forthcoming movie "Return of the Red Baron"
  6. By coincidence Latinbear has posted photos of the ROCAF museum in Gangshan in which is visible an all-black A-26 with roundel, without turrets, no serial visible. nose obscured.
  7. Best Fong decals have/had available sets in 1/144 and 1/72 entitled 'A/B-26 Invaders.' featuring 'serials' (three figures only) of four A-26's. ROC roundels are provided for the 1/144 set but not for the 1/72 it seems.. However, the ROC is not listed in Wikipedia (gasp) or anywhere else as far as I can make out as ever having operated Invaders. Actually they look to me like A-26c's with the clear nose bits overpainted. Colour is described as "Sky Blue" but the callouts suggest Deep Sea Blue like the Honduran examples. Presumably , these aircraft are not totally imaginary. Can anyone suggest where or why these aircraft were used? Regular ROC service,, CIA insertions into Communist China, Vietnam, Indonesia.? Bay of Pigs? They are depicted as still having top and bottom turrets.
  8. Yes, but you don't have my wallet which amongst other things has got to fund 3 Fairey Battles when they appear. Secondly, I am searching for decals at the moment. I've only bought one so far - North Yemen.
  9. It is packed very tightly in its plastic bag. I've had to get 3 of them to get an unbroken 4 blade propeller and in one of them the three blader was broken. Check at the shop if you can.
  10. There is a photo, First flight 1932, role description (Trimoteur de police coloniale), engines, basic dimensions, 10 passengers. Enough to begin with.
