Flying Leathernecks Decals, 1/48 scale

Flying Leatherneckss' Green Knights Decals are available online for $18.00 from Squadron.com

Dave Roof from Flying Leatherneck Decals has supplied information and an image of their next release, plus two reference photos:

Here is an image of our next release. Sheet FL48001 covers eight CH-53E's from the 22nd MEU, HMH-461, and HMH-464 stationed at MCAS New River, NC.

Six complete aircraft can be built, with Modex and BuNo options for two additional aircraft, one each from 461 and 464. As the Academy 1/48 CH-53E kit has complete and accurate stencils, we didn't see the need to duplicate them. The only exception is with two MARINES legends as one of the aircraft assigned to HMM-261 (22nd MEU) had a darker 'A' on one side and to ensure it matched the MARINES legend as a whole, we included them for this particular aircraft.

The sheet will also be accompanied by a CD with high resolution photos of all of the aircraft covered, as well as the instruction sheets in both .JPG and .PDF format.

Four of the aircraft have door art (two of which will be done by Archer Fine Transfers). The sheet will retail for $15.00 and will begin shipping within the next 2 to 3 weeks.

Thanks to Flying Leathernecks Decals for the images and information
