DC-6 British Eagle....or something else interesting..

Hi all,

I want to make this aircraft from the 1:72 Heller kit. I've got the kit in the stash but does anyone make decals for it?

Here's the aircraft I want to model: http://www.airliners.net/photo/British%20E...DC-6A/1365320/L

I gather G-APSA is a DC-6A whereas the Heller Kit is a DC-6B. What's the difference? I think the kit has passenger style doors whereas G-APSA has cargo doors. I guess I could just fill and rescribe as necessary?

My other prefered option would be to model G-SIXC, another of Air Atlantique's aircraft.

Does anyone do decals for the later vession of G-SIXC? Failing that, is there anything else interesting in the DC6 decal line such as the French firebomber or the Red Bull (last resort) DC-6?

...questions, questions, thanks in advance. :)

Phil
