I just bought some decals for the 147th FW that was stationed out of Ellington Field here in Houston. Has anyone built a 48th scale F-16 recently? I wonder what kit I should build for this one.

F-16C, I found the Superscale decals on Ebay for the 111th FS and didnt want them to get away. Now the 147th is flying Predators... :(

I wish I could find the decals for the F-4's from the 111th too! I really miss them being here!

The Superscale sheet is sized for the Hasegawa kit. Afterburner Decals also did a sheet that had marking for an F-16C from the 111th but they are sold out. Sheet 48-30

http://www.afterburnerdecals.com/products.html

Hi-Decal makes decals for the F-4D from the 111th. Sheet 48-025 F-4D Phantom II. If you have trouble finding them let me know and I can get you an email for the guy that makes them (Lives in Germany). I got mine direct from him.

I just received the decals in the mail yesterday. I havent had a chance to really take a good look at them. Its been about a year since my last build for a client or myself. Im ready to get back into the swing of things! :supz:
