JRB4 Expeditor (Beech 18) Paint Scheme
Posted by Quagmyre on Tuesday, February 17, 2004 7:02 PM
Building Battle Axe's limited run 1/48 Beechcraft 18 kit whilst I wait for detail parts on the SB2C to arrive. I'd like to go with the Navy (JRB4) paint scheme of Dark Sea Blue, but am not sure if these puppies were all blue or had white bellies or both. The kit calls for all blue, but there are known errors with painting instructions when it comes to this kit. My search on the Internet only comes up with white belly options as pictured below.


So... in short (too late I know) which is it? Anyone?

Nevermind. As usual, within a matter of minutes after I make a post the answer is provided by other means.

All Sea Blue. No white belly. Just the blue French version had the white belly. As depicted above.

Apparently this is a stinker of a kit to build. Looks like I got my work cut out for me.
