A scheme that has always been popular is for the Blue Angels. But rarely does one see a sheet for the support plane, 'Fat Albert'. This has been a C-130 version for decades and finally, the Blues have gotten something a bit more modern than the usual rather ancient Hercules aircraft it has used over the years. This latest incarnation is a modern KC-130T and, as always, is flown by a US Marine crew.

Superscale's sheet provides all of the common markings and the insignia. The builder will have to carefully paint the Yellow stripes and nose section, but on a kit of this size, it should be a pretty straight-forward job. The recommended kit for this is the Testors/Italeri 1/72 C-130 kit.

The end result will be a most impressive aircraft.
