unless your doing some model work i did a skin for this some time back

better pic of teh skin and tga work

[Wrench 9,849]

well, hell!!!  

other than the stripe is painted on, have all the B337/C-97 serials (14)*, adjusted & corrected all hit boxes on the model, creating new template with all new panel lines....and a seperate, nationalized IDF version for SF2I only...not much changed

 

*but can't match resgistration numbers -4X-*** - to 'plane in squadron' numbers as I can't find them all!! Using them as generic C-97s, as I can't find which were tankers only*

[+daddyairplanes 10,244]

my readme lists IsraDecal 1:72 IDF B377 Stratofreighter decal set as a info source, cant find my copies of decal sheets or reference from that (it was released 2 years ago). I do still have the Classic Airliners book on the B377 series though that has some serial info on the IDF.

as for the other work, that pretty cool. although then i'd need to update the Creek Party ANG tankers

awesome info. i didnt recall getting names when i was looking it up.

Kevin, should go without saying but if you wanna use my decals and save some work. have the serials for 4X-FP O, P, W, X,Y and Z in my set. as well as that logo and the white roof and blue stripe as one tga.

meanwhile, this thread has gone too long without a screenshot. 

so, do you like apples?

I have these manuals for the YC-97, KC-97E, and KC-97L if you guys need them.

D-7490 - Pilots Handbook - YC-97.pdf

AN 01-20CAG-1 - Handbook Flight Operating Instructions - KC-97E (10-08-1951).pdf

Boeing KC-97L Flight Manual.pdf

[KJakker 901]

I forgot, I also have T.O. 1-1-4 - Exterior Finishes, Insignia and Markings Applicable to Aircraft and Missiles from 1964 which has the C-97 as it was marked at that time.
