    Pre-WW2 German Aircraft Alphabets/Numbers

    HELP!

    Im planning to purchase Italeri's 1/72 Ju-52/3mg, but can't locate a decal sheet(s) bearing German pre-World War II aircraft letter and numbers so I can create my own registrations (for example: Hitler's aircraft D-2600; Goring's 2527 (or, D-ABAQ); etc.)

    ANyone know a decal manufacturer from whom I can obtain these letter and numbers in both black and white? I've searched the 'Net, but the search has not been successful.

      Welcome Jeff if you use the search facility at the top there are some threads for making your own decals with a printer, Hope this is some help for you.

        Thnaks for your suggestion, RE: Hannants. I initially started there, but the thought of wading through a seemingly endless list of decal sheets and manufacturers prompted me to try something that would possibly yield qujicker results modelers who are "in the know."

        And no, I not from the UK. I'm an American, living in North Carolina.

        Thanks for taking the time to answer and trying to help out.

          Thanks for the tip about using a PC printer to create declas; I had forgotten about that, particularly the Testor's decal kit.

          Nevertheless, I'm still continuing to hunt for a good quality ready-made decals sheet(s) with the appropriate alphabets and numerals so I can utilize the 1/72 Italeri civilian Ju-52's to create Hitler's personal "D-2600" and Fatso's red '52 (s/n 2527).

          I've got a lead to a company named "Peddinghous" but have only heard the name; don't know anything else about this company.

          Thanks for having the courtesy to reply to my inquiry,
