Decal Sheet Title Douglas A-1H Skyraiders - USAF 6th SOS
Types Featured A-1H

Superscale sheet 72-853 provides markings for a single A-1H Skyraider from the 6th SOS.

The aircraft featured is 52-137552 '6T' with serial number 37-552. This was flown by the commanding officer of the 6th SOS and carried a red/white/blue vertically striped fin and rudder. On the nose was "SPAD OPO" in white/blue/red stripes and the propeller tips were white/red/blue.

This was one of the last sheets produced by Superscale before their demise and the sheet is printed in good register, although extremely thin.

Instructions comprise left and right views, together with upper views of the wings and tailplanes (but not the fuselage for some reason!)
