If you've been looking for some good old-fashioned hawg marks, this set covers the A-10s out of the 47th Fighter Squadron at Barksdale AFB, LA. The aircraft portrayed in this set is:

  • A-10A, 79-094, BD, 'Old Man Mose'
  • A-10A, 79-095, BD, 'Stupefying Jones'
  • A-10A, 79-120, BD, 'Big Barnsmell'
  • A-10A, 79-145, BD, 'Tiny Yokum'
  • A-10A, 79-150, BD, 'Wolf Gal'
  • A-10A, 79-151, BD, 'Cave Gal'
  • A-10A, 79-152, BD, 'Pappy Yokum'
  • A-10A, 79-153, BD, 'Marryin Sam'
  • A-10A, 79-154, BD, 'Evil Eye Fleegle'
  • A-10A, 80-232, BD, 'Hopefull Mudd'

These markings have a nice additional set of color artwork to replicate the Lil Abner nose art for each of the 10 aircraft portrayed here. The decal set also includes sufficient stencils and markings to render two complete aircraft from this one set.

The instructions provide useful information on how to update your favorite A-10 kit to meet some of the unique details fitted to some of these aircraft.
