Kit: Williams Bros C-46
Scale: 1/72nd
Accessories: Eduard masks and decals from my spares box
The C-46 Commando was the lesser known and more capable of the two main twin engine transports used by the U.S. Army Air Force during World War II. It could fly higher, faster and farther than the better known C-47 (DC-3). Because of these abilities it was used mostly in the China-Burma-India and Pacific theaters of war where it received much less "Press" than its Douglas brother.
I will be doing this build straight out of the box except for maybe decals if I find some I like, in either olive drab over neutral gray or (if I feel like some self-torture) natural metal finish.
I would like to thank fellow member Mozit for finding a PDF of the instructions for this kit for me without which I would not now be building it.
