1/48 Yellow Wings Decals Scale 1" Black & White Pin Stripes

The Yellow Wings Decals 1/48 Scale 1" Black & White Pin Stripes (product number 48-004) is a specialized aftermarket decal set used for detailing pre-World War II U.S. Navy and Marine Corps aircraft models.

Product Specifications

  • Scale: 1/48
  • Product Number: 48-004
  • Historical Period: 1931 to 1941, the "Golden Age" of naval aviation
  • Skill Level: Basic, suitable for modelers aged 14 and up

Purpose and Application

These decals are used to outline colored section markings, such as wing chevrons, fuselage bands, and engine cowlings, which were often bordered by thin black or white pin stripes as dictated by Bureau of Aeronautics (BuAer) regulations during the "Yellow Wing" era.

What's Included

  • One decal sheet featuring multiple glossy black and white pin stripes
  • All stripes are the same width for consistency
  • Instructional documentation and profiles with examples of proper placement according to historical regulations
  • Print Quality: Printed by Microscale Industries, ensuring thin carrier film, high registration accuracy, and a "painted-on" appearance

Versatile Uses

These waterslide decals are perfect for hobbyists who prefer to paint their own colored bands and chevrons but want an easier way to apply the fine bordering lines. They're also useful for civil aircraft "cheat lines" and other general modeling applications.

Current Status

This product remains an active utility sheet in the specialized modeling market as of January 2026, providing essential detailing options for pre-WWII naval aviation enthusiasts.
