Here is something a bit unusual, a set of Air America markings. The sheet states it is 1/48, but since Air America flew such a wide array of aircraft, I'd think that these could be used on anything from 1/72 to 1/32 depending on what you chose. In addition to the name itself, an equal variety of fin flags are provided. All you really need to do a nice Air America plane are some registration letters. These come in a variety of fonts, so the best thing to do would be to have a photo of the aircraft in question. An excellent website to do some research on the subject is www.airamerica.org.

With these decals in hand, you can do PC-6s, C-123s, Beech 18s, UH-1, DHC-4s, C-46s and a variety of other types used by this group. These planes came in both unpainted metal and in Air America's blue/white livery. For this reason, you have both black and white markings provided on the sheet.
