No, actually they have been going to great lengths in fully out-fitting the aircraft with all original radios, instruments, armament, etc. - very nice to see! You can see a good indication of this on this page: http://www.americanaeroservices.com/web ... 00812.html

That is a paint scheme that has been looked at. I do not think final decision has been made yet. The overall colors will match that scheme, but for the detail markings, I do not think it has been 100% decided yet.

I heard a rumor that the Friedken A-36 is getting the scheme...gotta love rumors!!!

I believe that was one of the schemes suggested for the Accurate Miniatures A-36 model when it was released.

Thats right. I've had that kit sitting in my closet for years. It will get built one of these days... I'll probably use that scheme too.
