1/144 Minicraft DC-6B Fire Bomber kit -- need instructions

Sun Jan 26, 2014 12:46 am

I picked up the Minicraft 1/144 DC-6B Fire Bomber kit today, sans box and instruction sheet. This is the kit with the Conair decals depicting Tanker 46, C-GHLY. The plastic bags are factory sealed and all parts are present, along with the decal sheet. Couldn't pass it up for $5.00 (shelf price at this store was $21.99). Anyone have the instruction sheet? Can you scan it, or mail it to me and let me scan it?

It ain't that difficult, just be sure to sand lightly to eliminate the 'ghost' left side F.E.D. that DC-4/6/7's never had. And don't forget the nose weight (about 1/2 oz), and since it's a firebomber, you can leave off the cabin climate/presurization scoop on the belly (but, be a prudent modeller don't toss it! 'cause ya nevah know) :lol:
