Gregers,
I've got the kit, and I've got a scanner. What I won't have for the next 5 days is access to them, but I can get them to you after this TDY trip. I can also get some detail shots for ya. A bush carrier up here in Alaska recovered an old wrecked OA-12 (J2F-6) duck, and restored it. It took him 20 some years and he restored it in it's original configuaration/paint scheme. It belonged to the 10th Rescue Squadron, and was/is painted grey with red wing tips and tail. the float is dark blue with a thin white stripe. BTW, this is the same aircraft represented in the airfix model. Anyway, I think the guy gave up on selling it and donated it to the Alaska Aviation Heritage Museum.
Let me know,
Salbando

Would a photo copy work? I've got the Airfix kit, just haven't started working on it. By the way, if you can find it, the Squadron Mini J2F in action has some really neat schemes (Can't make up my mind as how to finish mine, Coast Guard overall Insignia white w/non specular sea blue uppers or USAF silver w/red wing tips and tail)

Hi Folks, just wondering can any of you help. i have had this duck model or a couple of years now and its just made it on to my "to build" pile. i've opened it up and there's no assembly or painting instructions inside. (i think i have posted about this before but i ain't too sure) and knowing how good airfix is (NOT) at sending replacement stuff i was wondering if any of you guys have this one and could scan and e-mail them to me (not as a word doc tho), please let me know via this thread so i am not inundated with e-mails. cheers in advance and HAPPY NEW YEAR to y'all. Greg
