500-1 USS Shangri-La w/Carrier Air Group 2 1956-57

The sheet that started it all. I designed this set for the Renwal USS Shangri-la kit and the Revell aircraft I used on it. Set included the Flight deck markings, Elevator markings, Runway Centerline, Island numbers, Hull Nameplate, Hanger deck warning stipes and so much more!

Also included are the markings for Carrier Air Group 2 from the 1956-57 cruise. CVG-2 deployed with:

VF-24 FJ-3 Fury VA-63 F9F-8 Cougar VF-64 F2H-3 Banshee VX-4 F7U-3M Cutlass VA-65 AD-6 Skyraiders VFP-61 F9F-8P Cougar VAW-11 Det. A AD-5W VA(AW)-35 Det. A AD-5N HU-1 Det.A HUP-3 GMGAU-1 FJ-3D Fury (Guided the Regulas Missiles) VAH-6 Det.A AJ-2 Savage VAH-2 A3D Skywarrior

You will need acquire the extra aircraft either in resin (some sold hear) or from other kits.
