That Norwegian scheme is lovely! It's just a shame the kit's so difficult to get here in the States...

You don't have postal nor parcel services in the US?

The world is a click away.

There's a new book out on the F-84F & RF-84F with lots of colourful markings for inspiration, including a painting of the Danish jet on the new decals. Book review here on BM:

I hope a decal maker picks up a copy to release some more F-84 sheets. If more references are needed PM me.

Nils, you really ought to print some Danish decals too. We need good quality Danish decals. ;)

Too little time to do the Norwegian ones that I want. You should ask Ruben (Lima November), I see he has started printing Danish "donuts"....

I have tried putting some pressure on Ruben but with no luck so far. At least he has made some great roundels for a start. :)

I think Tanmodel is going to correct the Danish decals in the kit. At least that's what one of my friends has told me, so we will be working on providing them with information.

CMK dedicated sets

The set offers all-new and superbly-detailed camera equipment for a widely used recce version of the F-84F Thunderflash jet aircraft. Not only are the cameras much more detailed, they also come as one-piece parts. The maintenance panels of the recce camera compartment bring higher levels of detail and come with padded sidewalls missing from the original kit parts.

One of the F-84F Thunderstreak/RF-84F Thunderflash jet aircraft users was also the German Bundesluftwaffe that fitted its machines with new MB GY5/GT5 ejection seats. In the Tanmodel kit, unfortunately, this type of the hot seat was left out which gives us the opportunity to bring you the correct type now. It is not necessary to adapt the kit for the use of our seat.

Another CMK set on approach.

Following the correction sets with new ailerons and flaps, we have prepared also a new and detailed undercarriage bay set. The original parts in the kit are rather shallow and lack most of the details. Our set features all the surface details.
