rob Lyttle Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Does anyone know if there is a decal sheet for this livery in 1/72? I just picked up a catalogue/ publication from a posh jewellery shop with some pics and coverage of the round-the-world flight. She looks rather smart..

Italeri did a 1/72 boxing of their DC-3 with these markings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skodadriver Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 8a Decals (based in Mexico) do it. It's not immediately obvious from their website which shows 1/144 as the default scale. Search by "Aircraft Index" then "DC3/C47" and Breitling should be towards the right of the page. Click on "more" below the image and you'll find a drop-down menu which allows you to specify the scale. $13 US plus postage to the UK. http://www.8adecs.com/v2/site/ HTH Dave G 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob Lyttle Posted September 5, 2018 Author Share Posted September 5, 2018 Thanks @VH-USB, I've done the italieri kit fairly recently, the one with 6 livery choices supplied, and used the Air France option on the sheet. Also used the Lufthansa option to make over an old airfix gunship. Some shortcomings of course, but at least I'd know what I'm getting. I'll have a look around. Great info @Skodadriver. Good options there, especially if I go for the new Alrfix product, which is by all accounts a great kit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob Lyttle Posted September 5, 2018 Author Share Posted September 5, 2018 Nice...! Same (old) moulding, I guess. Or have they done new nacelle/ exhaust parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janneman36 Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Same old mould but very good decals as the gold is gold and not something that is supposed to look gold.. Be quick with buyng a Italeri one with these decals as Breitling did stop supporting this airplane , she has now a different name on it.. https://www.jetphotos.com/photo/8995386 Cheers, Jan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orso Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 With Italeri C-47/DC-3 one have to take a look in the box. Lately they have issued the Esci kit in Italeri boxes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
