Look up N30801 in the aircraft registry at www.faa.gov and contact the present owners.

Status: offline 		I know this is a really old thread but:

I cannot find documentation which includes the nomenclature for access panels and doors. I.E. I can get the info on the bigger stuff. But I would like the lettering for access panels, electrical panels, oil ports etc. Any lettering that was on the outside of the B-25.

Any help out there?

Just a suggestion. You might look at one of the better detailed plastic models in 1:48 scale or larger if available. Thirty years ago when I did all of my plastic model building, there were some pretty detailed models and decal sheets available. As I recall there was a company called Microset ? that produced decal sheets sold seperately for 1:72, 1:48, 1:32 etc...

These decal sheets included so much in way of the tiny details you speak of. Plastic model kits are an invaluable resource for the scale R/C builder as all of the research is done for you. You can also see what the surface details look like ie; panel lines, rivet and fastener, fabric, antennia location and gear details like brake lines.

Regards,
Ken.

I did a search for the full size plane and unknown to me I live only 10 miles away from one. I didn't think the Pima air museum had a B-25 but they do. Now the question is what shape is it in, are all the details there, and can I get close enough to photograph.

Would much prefer something like you suggested or some done with a really sharp expensive camera.

This link will help you along your way.

What is the size of your model? I'm sure I can help you with some of your needed lettering for it.

Status: offline 		Hi,
Thanks for that. I am a little nuts on this. The plane is the Top Flite model so it is only 1/9 scale. So the lettering that I want to do is all the very small stuff. In those pictures you can see some of the bigger lettering just below the cockpit. The B-25 has more lettering on small hatches, electrical access, oil fill, etc.

Funny thing is that the small Top Flite P-51 comes with much of this lettering in their decal package but then doesn't specify where is is to be placed.

For the small stuff I am going to do my own water slide decals since this lettering really needs to lay down on the surface.

When it is all done I will clear coat the entire plane.

Thanks

But here's a really nice link to all kinds of info on the 25 right here on this sub channel
