Yellow Wing Decals has released its third decal set in 1/32 scale.
This set takes care of one of my favorite kits from my early days
of modeling - the Monogram 1/32 F3F-3.
This set provides markings for aircraft from VF-5 off the USS
Yorktown and VF-6 off of USS Enterprise. The aircraft covered in
this set are:
- F3F-3, 1451, VF-5, 5-F-7, USS Yorktown, May 1939
- F3F-3, 1454, VF-5, 5-F-10, USS Yorktown, May 1939
- F3F-3, 1451, VF-6, 6-F-15, USS Enterprise, Aug 1940
The instructions that are included in this set provide not only
the colors and decal placement for the three examples, the flipside
of each profile contains a table of aircraft numbers and associated
bureau numbers so that you can replicate any of the aircraft in
either squadron.
Yellow Wing Decals can be purchased directly from their website
at www.yellow-wingsdecals.com.
Highly recommended!
My sincere thanks to Yellow Wing Decals
for this review sample!
