Wow, I'm so jealous, it's so hard to get one tagged with a reasonable price and shipment cost. Yours look great, it deserves more pics for sure. 👍

That was the first one I built, commissioned by the son of the pilot who perished in the crash. it is in a previous project in my profile. This one is for an aviation archeologist friend of mine.

One may ask if the aviation archaeologist friend in question was involved in finding the original escape hatch... (I just saw the album of the first model). Brilliant work - much respect for dealing with such subjects. Cheers.

Yes, that was him. He and I have excavated several crash sites here in Canada together. From wartime DeHavilland Mosquitos to F-86 Sabres and airliners. Very interesting stuff.

Also a Grumman Avenger used to spray the Spruce Budworms in 1953. There are lots of crash sites here in New Brunswick. I dug up an Avro Anson Mk.I just 10 minutes from my house.

Norm, Beautiful build of EPA Herald CF-NAC. Ithought about doign a similar project, but seeing your beautiful work, thinks I had just better stick to CF-EPI. BTW, What color red did you use to match the decals? Kind regards, Dutch

I had to mix up a match for the red using Testor's Model Master Enamels, Chrysler Engine Red with a bit of Orange added.

Norm, Right, thank you. Also, what color did you paint your horizontal tail planes: silver or grey? WJ calls for white, I think, which doesn't seem correct to me. K/r, Dutch

I found a picture somewhere that clearly showed them as grey on NAF, so I did that.

Thank you, Norm. I am leaning that way myself. Here is a link to my post on ARC Forum requesting help. However, I think that you have answered my question sufficiently. K/r, Dutch

Would like to find a reasonable-Price Herald kit too. There needs to be more Turbprop Airlines in 1/72!
