This new decal
sheet from Starfighter
Decals includes
markings for 4 different 1/72 Boeing P-26 Peashooter with the 17th Pursuit Group
in those wonderfully colorful pre-war paint schemes.
The
4 schemes include:
-
P-26A 34th
Pursuit Squadron 33-63 March Field, CA
-
P-26A 73rd
Pursuit Squadron 33-47 March Field, CA
-
P-26A 95th
Pursuit Squadron 33-62 March Field, CA
-
P-26A 95th
Pursuit Squadron 33-62 March Field, CA alternate scheme
The 2 pages of
instructions are clear and include 2 or 3 color views of each aircraft for
painting guidance and marking placement. The instruction sheet also gives
paint and markings info for each aircraft. The decals are beautifully
printed on 1 decal sheet by Cartograf and are of a first rate quality.....you
will not be disappointed. Designed to fit the Revell P-26 Kit. Can be used
on the Pavla Kit with small modifications.
This set contains 3 complete sets of markings for 1 aircraft from each squadron
of the 17th Pursuit Group: 34th Pursuit Squadron; 73rd Pursuit Squadron, and
95th Pursuit Squadron. This is a double size sheet to include the markings for
the scallops, fin flashes and other unique markings used by this Pursuit Group.

I am very impressed by the selection
of markings on this particular decal sheet....these look more like brightly
decorated aerobatic aircraft from the air show circuit rather than military
aircraft. Well done to Starfighter
Decals for researching these classic aircraft and bringing
these decal sheets to the market for all modelers to enjoy.

I would like to
thank Starfighter
Decals for
providing me with this review sample.
