Print Scale 72-350 Decals for 1/72 Bucker Bu.131 Jungmann

Water-slide Decals:
Instruction:
1. Preparation: to achieve better result, a gloss or semi-gloss coat is very important. It will make a smooth layer which the decals will suction to and make it much easier to apply and set them.
2. Cut out the decal you need (do it on cutting mat)
3. Grab the decal with tweezers, place it on the surface of the water and leave it for about 20 seconds.
4. Remove the decal from the water and place it on paper towel to remove any excess water.
5. Apply decal solution to the part where the decal is to be placed.
6. Slide the decal off the backing paper on to the model. Using a paint brush or cotton bud is a good way to do this without damaging the decal.
7. Use the brush, knife or cotton bud to position the decal. Using your paper towel, gently dab the decal and soak up the excess water (decal softener is also recommended at this stage. After applying softener, the decal will suction to the part and flatten out smooth.)
8. When the decal is completely dry, give another coat of varnish or Klear/Future to seal it.

1. Bu.131. Unit: FFS(A)43. Serial: CW+BG (50, W.Nr.483). Backer Bu.131. CW+BC. Werk Nummer 483. was flown by a pupil from FFS(A)43 at Crailsheim (Germany), who landed at Basle, Switzerland, on 14 June 1944, having mistaken the city for Strassburg. Finished in overall RLM 71 Dunkelgrun with RLM 65 undersides, the machine is a classic example of a late-war trainer. It is exceptionally fully marked by virtue of its unit emblem, school number (50) and white outlined Stammkenzeichen fuselage codes and fuselage crosses. The German pilot expressed a preference for internment and the aircraft was consequently flown back to Freiburg by a Swiss pilot.
2. Bu.131B. Unit: LKS7 (Luftkriegsschule-Airwarschool). Serial: CC+NZ (W.Nr.4262). Tulln (near Vienna), Austria 1944.

5. Bu.131. Unit: III.Kozelfelderito szdzad. Serial: I-333. This overall RLM 02 Grungrau machine served as a trainer, courier and Liaison machine with the Hungarian III.Kozelfelderito szdzad - III Tactical Reconnaissance squadron - whose falcon emblem can he seen on the fuselage. Sole the chevron-style national markings used only until 1st March 1942. The original picture on which this illustration is based does not show the code absolutely clearly, but notes that the serial number is I-333, as shown. This is of interest as it is outside the range of numbers officially allocated to the type. This could mean therefore that the serial is actually I-233. Photographic evidence exists, however, for other out-of- sequence numbers for the type in Hungarian service, possibly indicating that those machines were impressed civilian aircraft.
