What! Still no Canadian decal option. Rude!

Chris, no big problem to take decals from some other kit, here is scheme (likely I will do it), all yellow with black nose, I think

Bellanca CH-300 Pacemaker #622

 

 

However, there is a problem, since here http://www.rwrwalker.ca/RCAF_601_650_detailed.htm number 622 is attributed to Fairchild, not to Ballanca! Howit is possible?

Cheers

This is the CH-300. Pay attention to the hood. This is definitely an CH-300 engine, not a 400.

The fuselage is orange.

Those are all well and good if you want to do an RCAF machine, but what if you want to do some local historical modelling?

Where these two photos were taken is about a mile down the hill from where my backside is sitting right now. Some of the earliest northern aviation flew from here.

Commercial Airways decals were done by Thunderbird Models, intended for the previous Khee-Kha vac kit  :
