1/48 CT-114 Tudor "SnowBirds"

Being Canadian designed and built, I have to assume these attributes make it an undesirable venture by mainstream model companies.  So Hobbycraft is your only option for 1/48.  Assuming you have tried ebay, try searching online Canadian hobby shops.  If you do any traveling, popping into a department store might surprise you.  I recall seeing one in a small town hardware store of all places.

Here's an online shop to get you started:

You will be probably looking at independent shops where you have to contact them first for availability and ordering.

Seems to me :

   i remember putting a Canadair in my stash .It was the firefighting seabird . Yellow , for sure /w /red trim

I saw one today at Piper Hobby in Chantilly, VA  for about $25 but I don't think it was the Snowbirds marking.  You may want to call them and see if they can ship.  I have an extra Belcher's Bits decal sheet for that kit which I'll be putting on EBay soon.  I had zero luck finding the resin set though so it'll be a manual detailing effort whenever I get around to it :)

These kits are as rare as hen's teeth.  Rick Chin (Uncle Bill's Hobbies) in Calgary did a resin correction set for the Hobbycraft kits but that's even more rare.  And seeing as he passed away last year, and Uncle Bill's Hobbies is no more, you are more than likely S.O.L. in finding a conversion and if you do, you'll probably end up paying an arm and a leg, unless the vendor is being very generous.  Good luck in your search.  Good luck in your endeavour.

 Hey how's it going where you ever able to find the  kit  you were looking for 

This may help anyone looking for one.
