Rich,
Take the caps lock off,is considered shouting on the net.

Did you look through proctors catalog in the book section? He also has photo paks of the planes as well in the catalog.
If you have the winsock and the squadron signals pub on N28, try Glencoe models at your hobby shop. They have 2-3 versions of the N28, with color plate paintings on the bottome of the box with N28s. From there u can look at pics and compare.
Also, ck out Bob Bankas scale documentary book. He goes all over the world to get color pics on airplanes of all types for scale modelers.
7800 foto paks listed in latest 2000 edition.
If u dont have AMA, its in the modelers mall in back of magazine, then i can send u the address.
internet is http://imt.net~ims/scale.html

hope that helps,

Ron...Thanks for the reply. Sorry about the caps I'm a police officer and all our communications on the mobile data terminals in our vehicles is in caps. 25 years of habit is hard to break... also thanks for the info. I have Bob Bankas book, but I'm trying to find colors that might not be modeled alot. I hadn't been successful in finding any models of a 28, but Ill check this weekend about Glencoe models.. thanks again

Bob Pearson's sight has about 15 schemes of
the Nieuport 28 in American Air Service.
Go to Forum links(here) and find the WWI modelling site. Once there go to links and find Bob's site link

Also on the WW1 Modeler's page are photo's taken during restoration of the NASM plane, as well as photo's of a stripped repo (I think it's a repo). Go to Model and General Images, and scan the page.
