Yes. A few vendors have had it for sale in the U.S. but in short supply. My FSM review model will be featured in the upcoming December issue. It's a honey!

Hello!

The instructions for it can be seen on the Revell site:

Judging by this, it's a very nice model. I wonder if it can be done in a paint scheme somehow connected to Vietnam War...

Have a nice day

Paweł

All comments and critique welcomed. Thanks for your honest opinions!

No this is an all new tool, new mold kit... I have a feeling it's gonna be gorgeous!

Pawel, I would be most surprised if there was not one DC-4/C-54 assiciated somehow with Vietnam. According to my Vietnam Air War Debrief book, it was involved there in the early days with the USAF, USN, and USMC, in a support role.
