72-107 is the second of the two new sheets from Euro Decals covering the Douglas Skyraider in the Korean War. The sheet provides markings for three United States Marine Corps Skyraiders.
All options on the sheet wear the camouflage finish of the era, overall glossy sea blue.
Details of the individual machines as follows:
· AD-2Q, Bureau number 122386, of VMC-1 at Seoul in December of 1952.
· AD-3 Bureau number 122733 of VMA-212 at Pohang in 1952. A little different from the other two options, this one sports white tips to its fin and rudder and wings as well as the front of it’s propeller boss.
As it does with the sheet covering the United States Navy Skyraiders, Euro Decals recommends the Tamiya, Italeri and Monogram kits with the word “backdated” listed against them. You need to understand that if you want to model any of the options on this sheet you will be required to do to a fair bit of work. Whilst some of the tasks are fairly simple, the removal of the anti-collision beacon on the fin, the antennae on the spine etc, the main task you will be faced with is the removal of the armour plate from the forward fuselage and undersides of the wing, a fairly long process which will consume much time and sandpaper.
Support material/placement guides are in the form of two A-4 sized sheets with separate page for each option that shows left and right hand side profiles with plan views of the upper and lower surfaces of each wing in colour.
