I like making models of post war aircraft especially aircraft based in Scotland. whilst searching for Lancaster's used after the war I came across the Xtradecals sheet that has an RAF Kinloss based aircraft, but did not realise that lancs were based at RAF Leuchars in the SAR role. This is the nearest of the two airfields to myself.
Lists of extras:
1) Kits-World KW172025 Medium sea grey for the fuselage codes
2) Revell (frog) moulding of the Avro Shackleton MR3 Decals. These decals are for 2 aircraft based at RAF Kinloss, 1 being an aircraft of 120 squadron which later moved to Kinloss from Leuchars. The crests for the squadron will be used.
3) Xtradecal X72065 RAF Post War Serial Letters and Numbers for underside of the wings
4) Xtradecal X72157 RAF Post War Serial Letters and Numbers for the tail serials
