Hi guys, or may be gals, I am Douglas and am new here. I am a modeller at Hong Kong (far away from the States) and would like to build an A-10A model in the scale of 1/32. I am interested to build one of the marking 78-0626 / MA of 104FW 131FS. Do any one of you have information and photos on this one ? The Cutting Edge decal I have is of very preliminary information. This is why I am asking for help.

Thanks.

Regards,

Douglas

Hello Hawg166,

I followed your link and checked at the Patriot web page. But I only found the logo, no photo or information of the aircraft. I thought I miss something, would you give me a little more pointers ?

Regards,

Douglas

Dice has/had a pic of the doorart ("Nomad") on his site at one time, take a look at his web site:

Hope that helps a little...

I was under the impression that there was a couple of pics at the Pats sight. Sorry. There are a few of them at airliners.net like the Major said. What they dont show you is the Patriots helmet and logo under the left wing and the three Vince Lombardi Trophies that are on the outside of the right wheel pod.

I have close ups of this if you need them.

Billy, is there any reason that I can't share them? If you would rather I not then say so.

Douglas, if he give's me the okay, then PM me your email addy and I'll send them. When he flew into Quonset last year I got all close up shots, even under the wings ;)

I dont care a bit. Share away. Do you have any more from the nose on the starboard side. I cun just make out the last of the trophies on the wheel pod from where you took this one.

Here is the left underwing decal

leftside

I don't know what these are, but they were under the left wingtip

I was positive I have a close up of the Nomad and door art but I'll have to look on another disk some where. If not, Ken Middleton just did the Red Sox and Pats A-10 models and brought them in to the 104th. He takes pictures for decal companies so I can see if he has other close ups.
