Well, looks like Kamil Meluzin (Tally Ho!) keeps them coming.  Another great decal sheet - this time for Kittyhawks Mk.IA and P-40E-1. The Part One in 1/72 scale is selling under the product number 72 039 and 1/48 scale under the product number 48 033. Both scales have the identical selection of five aircraft. Three from North Africa and two from Pacific Theater.

Kittyhawk Mk.IA - AK 658 - GA X "The Grim Jester" flown by famous Clive R. "Killer" Caldwell while with RAF 112th Squadron.

Kittyhawk Mk.IA - AK 846 - LD H from RAF 250th Squadron. RAAF F/O John. L. Waddy downed 2 Ju-52 and 2 Me-110 on May 12, 1942  with this machine.

Kittyhawk Mk.IA - AK 772 - GA Y "London Pride" - sharkmouth from RAF 112th Squadron flown again by Sqdn. Ldr. Clive R. "Killer" Caldwell in April 1942.

Curtiss P-40E-1 - ET 601 - "Texas Longhorn" - the personal aircraft of John D. Landers, 9th FS, 49th FG from 1942. Beautifully done nose art (varies on port and starboard side - based on photographs).
