Fotofrank,

The kit is the Academy OV-10. Revell Germany just issued a reboxing.

Keavdog, which OV-10 kit? I was going to do the same build with the Testors 1/48 OV-10 but I sold the kit with the Cal Fire decals. I'd like to do it in 1/72 scale, well, because that the size I have room for.

OK. In the stash: Way too much to build in one lifetime...

Very cool build. And at a time when it is most needed.

Hi,

I'm looking forward to seeing more of this build.  I really enjoy seeing planes and such in less common markings, and firefighting markings look especially interesting.

I did a huge conversion on the S2T CalFire and now I'm doing the OV-10A Command bird.

Sticking with the 1/72 scale I  was a little dissapointed that the only decals are for the older livery but, hey - no worries.

So converting the military version to the Cal Fire requires carving off the ordanace capabilities.  Minor modification compared to the S2T.  Anyhow, under construction.
