Fred Jack Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 There is a discontinued 1/32 decal sheet for the Hobbycraft SPAD Xlll by FFSMC Industries which includes two French 48th SPA SPAD Xlll. A fellow cut out each SPAD from the sheet, got two Hobbycraft SPADS, and combined each sheet with a separate SPAD, then auctioned off each combination on eBay. I was able to get both, which is how I knew he had done this because both sheets matched up. Because both were auctioned off at different weeks, I didn't realize it was the same seller. I actually love his idea. BiggTim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted May 5, 2016 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Interesting. I'll soon be on the hunt for an old Spada sheet for the Camel, but only need markings for one of the depicted aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Jack Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) I had no idea that Spada had a Camel sheet. I do have a set of NOVASCALE N-32071 Camels if you'd like any. I have a thing for Barker's Camel since I had his 1/28th plane as a teen when Revell came out with it. I had it displayed with Luke's SPAD and Voss' Tripe, the first plane released in 1/28. I have Luke's SPAD and Voss' Tripe, but not Barker's Camel, so I'll take the decal off your hands. I have a Clerget motor, and a couple of the LeRhone Aces Camels.

Fred Jack Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 I see Ernie is building his Camel, so that's probably why he dropped the ball, but that's understandable, it's a great kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Jack Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 Funny how the NOVASCALE instructions reference Osprey British and Empire Aces of World War l yet not one of the planes or pilots are even mentioned in the book??????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Jack Posted May 5, 2016 Author Share Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) No I don't. But they have a Link Trainer C3 at the Wesfern Museum of Flight. LOL! Edited May 5, 2016 by Fred Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
