This is the second C-130
sheet sent in by Vince Maddux Decals. It has markings for two C-130H
aircraft in the overall AMC Grey scheme. The first is from the 908 AW based
at Maxwell AFB in Montogomery AL. In line with most USAF transports, it
limits its color to the blue tail band. The other is from the 807 AW at
Dyess AFB in Texas with its red tail band.
The sheet includes sufficient common markings to do one of the two planes. Since this is an Alps printed sheet, it is on one carrier so the markings will need to be cut out. Printing is well done and crisp.
Of course, this sheet is designed for the Italeri 1/48 C-130H, which has also been boxed by Testors in the past. I can tell you that it makes into a very large model so be sure to have a lot of shelf space for this one!
Vince provides a nicely printed instruction guide, showing a profile of the aircraft on the sheet. I don't know the price as there was no other information provided, but if you contact Vince at the e-mail listed below, he can give you details.
