The MPM 72 scale DC-2 is number 72-091

markings in the kit are:

1/ Spanish Civil War
2/ U.S. Navy
3/ Australian Air Force

Hope this helps a little.

Thanks Steffan & Rob. Is that kit a vacuum form or injected? Where might I get one?

I found a couple vacform DC-2's on ebay but I've never built a vacform.

Steve

It is injection moulded, but it is short run. Be prepared to spend some time and elbow grease...

cheers

Steffen - Found one on ebay. MPM, but has PAA markings. I'll try to get it.
Thanks,
Steve
