Need Help , Decaling my RAAF Huey .

Yeah - mate, I feel your pain.

Hawkeye delcals are often the only game in town, but almost always suffer from lack of references and accuracy...but, I've always been able to cobble those decals into something that looks correct.

I've used maybe 15 Hawkeye sets...never found one to be correct yet...but like I said, they're often the only game in town for Australian subjects.

I wish I was able to help you with Huey references...sorry mate -

I posted a RAAF Huey walkaround on the "Readers Photos" page of the Aussie Modeller website a few weeks ago. It might be a help for you.

Sorry I'm no help. I checked my only UH-1 book and there are no RAAF Hueys in there.

Someone posted a link to an RAAF Hueys in Vietnam website, but that was probably you.

Neat project though, good luck finding the info, I'm looking forward to seeing it done.

 I've also tried comparing the RAAF decal stencils with my Fireball Flat Iron decals .

There's only a few RAAF stencils that are similar to the Flat Iron decals , so it's become quite frustrating . I think I'll just place the main decals on the Huey for the time being .

I've tried using some of my previous Huey builds and decal instruction sheets for reference , however a lot of the RAAF stenciling is quite difficult to read even with a magnifing glass .

I may have to guess where some of them might go ???
