Errors in instructions

It should be Measure 32 6-10D

The 10D means pattern D for destroyers, but there were more than a couple of cases where a pattern for one type of ship was applied to another.

Dragon's already done the production run on this kit so I doubt they'll need to change it, but I'll pass it along. I'm helping them with some Future Essex class releases in 700th....

Thanks for your response.  While you are at it, could you recommend that new editions of the Yorktown class carriers of Midway fame be made, re-done, or re-issued.  They were woefully under represented in the 1/700 scale in plastic.  Especially CV-5.  Thank you.  Lenny

Tamiya is reportedly reworking their 1:700 Enterprise (CV-6) which actually represents no specific time period/armament configuration toward being more so.   Included will also be the island which is undersized.    

The previously announced time frame was sometime in 2009 -- but with the global economic turndown, including its severe impacts on the Japanese economy which were annonced today, there is no guarantee that the schedule will remain on track.

Since the Yorktown (CV-5) and the Enterprise were nearer to being twin sisters than the sibling Hornet, getting to a Yorktown from a Enterprise should be a doable conversion.
