Well hello, I am a visitor from Armorama and I am wanting to build an aircraft.

I just finished reading John Halliday's Flying Through Midnight and I would love to build a C-123K Provider and I am having trouble finding any kits of this good old warhorse.

I am hoping someone here will be able to help me

Hello

I did a short search and found only the Mach 2 C -123 in 1/72. http://www.mach2.fr/provideg.htm

I do not know how experienced you are, but Mach 2 are only for very experienced modelles who could also carve that thing from a piece of soap. But it is a start and maybe they improved a little bit.

I hope someone who has (actually build) that model can help you a little more...

best wishes

Hi there

It's good to have you with us from Armorama.

A-Model have a range of C-123s in 1/144th scale, including a couple of 'Ks.
Mach 2 have a 1/72 C-123 with optional parts to model several versions, including a 'K. http://www.mach2.fr/provideg.htm

Has anyone built any of these?

All the best

Rowan
