AIMS 1/32 Bf 110 G-4 decal sheet 32D037

Hi everyone, very soon the decals for my 1/32 Bf 110 G-4 conversion set will run out and in order to keep selling this popular set I need decals for it and so I have done another decal sheet which will be in the conversion sets in the future but also available as a stand alone product - hence the decal number 32D037. It has gone to the printers but I do not know when it will be available. Hope you like

Best wishes, John

Da Nang AFB 1969 Jeffery Kerr

 Somme great photo from Jeffery Kerr collection. Some rare insight into 1969.

 C-130 belonging to VMGR 352. Home base was USMC Air Station, El Toro, CA. This aircraft rotated in and out of DaNang from Futenma, Okinawa.

I have been researching the 6th SOS for several years and it's a rare treat to see an image that I've never seen before. This is the alert pad at Da Nang and I would estimate the date as mid-1969. The "6T" tail code has been said to be applied to airplanes assigned to the 6th's Da Nang detachment in lieu of the squadron's standard "ET". The airplanes are armed with the standard SAR loadout, but with the common 6th convention of having a second 7.62mm minigun on the right stub pylon in place of a 150 gal fuel tank. At left is A-1H 137552 "Spad Dad" and at right is (best guess based on known assigned aircraft) A-1J 142065, which was previously named "777 Jackpot". '552 would be lost in Dec 69, her pilot rescued. '065 would be lost in March 70 with her pilot KIA. A little-known tidbit is that the  is that the 6th did not use the SANDY callsign; they went by SPAD.

More C-124 photos

 Hopefully I have not bored people with these photos. Hardly anyone posts comments. Some will be glad I'm near the end of my years of collecting C-124 photos.
