I wish the aftermarket decal companies would print some interesting decals for these Colts. The An-2 is used all over the world.

I found this decal, for an An-2 of the Bosnian Serb Militia, unfortunately in 1/72 scale; if only Blue Rider would print some in 1/48. http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/BR803

This...... seems to have fallen off the radar?

I badly want it. BADLY. I have a great idea for a "what if" model.
