Second in
the line of much-awaited decals from Cutting Edge, this
one covers
3 different B-52 airframes. The
decals are very thin with minimal carrier film and
the registration seems to be spot on. The airframes
covered are:-
- B-52D-30-BW 56-0658 "Cong Crusher"
from the 99th BW, in the standard Vietnam SEA/black
scheme. This was one of the last SIOP scheme
BUFFs to carry nose art;
- B-52F-65-BW 57-0144 "Mekong Express" from
the 320th BW SW, in the silver upper/black lower
scheme;
- B-52H-130-BW 60-0008 "Dear Rocky, Not
To Win Is A Very Bad Thing" from the 19th
BW, in the silver upper / white lower scheme.
This jet participated in the 1966 (or '67) RAF
bombing competition at RAF Marham and also in
the SAC World Series of Bombing
For each airframe, Cutting Edge include a side view
with details of where individual markings are
placed and a top view to show where walkways etc are
located. All drawings are in full color.
They also make reference to the specific fit out
of each airframe, and this would come in handy if
using either the DB or Cutting Edge resin conversion
sets.
Another very nice sheet!
