This new decal sheet from Model Alliance features a special Sikorsky CH-124 Sea King 60th Anniversary scheme for 443 Sqn of the Canadian Armed Forces.

The markings are a large black and yellow Hornet insect on both sides of the forward fuselage and on the rear fuselage are black and yellow stripes with the Canadian flag, serial number and aircraft # 407.  The top of the rotor head has a yellow spiral and there are yellow 60th anniversary text markings in the middle of the left side of the fuselage.  

The overall colour of the fuselage is Grey FS36173 and colours are listed in Humbrol, Xtracolor, Lifecolor and Model Master.  The instructions also include painting instructions for the interior which is helpful. 

The decals themselves are flawlessly printed and very clearly printed on the 1/72 sample I have before me.  Colours look solid and should cover very well, but the decals appear thin and of a very high quality.  

There are 4 pages of instruction sheets with 4 view colour drawings of this chopper.  This is a fine decal sheet and a welcome treat for people interested in building a unique Sea King.

You can order these decals direct from aviation-workshop@btconnect.com   Contact them for prices and ordering information.

Special thanks to Model Alliance for sending me this review sample.  You can purchase these decals direct from the Model Alliance website.
