FirstLook

 

Xtradecal has just released a range of brand new 1/48 scale decals covering the Avro Anson Mk.I. This will be ideal for the impressive all-new Airfix 1/48 scale Anson released last year, but will be equally relevant to the old Classic Airframes kit.

Today we are examining Part 4.

 

 

Six subjects are offered.

 

A nice selection of interesting colours are markings are included.

Details are as follows:

    1. Avro Anson T.I, EG317/'603'/'C', of Air Service Training Ltd, in service under Royal Navy Admiralty contract, based at RAF Hamble,UK, 1952.

    2. Avro Anson Mk.I, DJ513, of Royal Norwegian Air Force, based in Norway, 1946 - 1947.

    3. Avro Anson Mk.I, '214' of Portuguese Air Force, based in Portugal, 1947.

    4. Avro Anson 10 '02' of Israeli Air Force, based in Israel, early 1950's.

    5. Avro Anson Mk.I, R3530/'55', of 6 Service Flying Training School, Royal Australian Air Force, based at RAAF Station Mallala, South Australia, Feburary, 1945.

    6. Avro Anson Mk.I 'D.9' of Royal Netherlands Air Force, based at Gilze-Rijen, Netherlands, early 1949.
