I'm trying to build a gloster meteor (f.8 ,CA) and trying to look for sources of decals and color schemes for australian aircrafts in korea...anybody has any info on it?
much appreciated!!

Hi Rodrigo

Welcome to Armorama!

You'll find a couple of profiles here



The Classic Airframes F 8 early version, Kit 466, should include decals for "Halestorm" from 77 Squadron in Korea circa 1951, and an RAAF aircraft from 56 Squadron circa 1953; both in the overall-aluminum finish.

Otherwise, you might want to check out Red Roo Models . (I only found a picture of the acrobatic team set, but they have sets for operational aircraft, too!)



The generic decals from
Aussie Decals might also come in handy.

There are some detailingsets (rockets and such)

Cheers!

Hi Rodrigo.
Welcome to Armorama!
Have a look at the photo walkround of the Meteor in the RAF museum at Hendon I submitted a few weeks ago.
I would send you a link but the site is down at the moment.
If you look on the homepage under "new photos" you will be able to link to the pics by clicking on Gloster Meteor F8.

thanx chaps! I can see that all of them are silver finish, i wanted to do a camo scheme like the raf ones but australian,silver seems too boring, and most of the raf have neat camos! do ypou guys know if the australians camouflaged their aircraft or all of them were silver?
