B-36 Peacemaker Lighting

Hi everyone first of all thanks for allowing me to join the group. I am about to start a build of the old monagram 1/72 B-36 and i intend to light it landing lights, nav, strobe and formation. Can anyone give me a idea where these lights go and their colors? I know where the wing navs go but unsure of the others. Thanks in advance for any help and happy modelling.

Hi Roger,

Welcome, and anyone is free to join. Everyone here is friendly.

Per the subtitle on my posts, I would get your hands on good reference material.

Amazon has “Magnesium Overcast” in hard cover for $ +/- 25.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums! Glad to have you aboard.

I can’t help you with your question but don’t get discouraged. Because of work schedules, time differences and other reasons you might have to wait a while for an answer but be assured you will get answers.

I’ve been building models for 76 years and my favorites are WWI & WWII planes followed by sailing ships. I’m still learning a lot from the members here. You’ve come to the right place. They are very knowledgeable and ready to help new members (and old ones like me).

Good luck with your question.

Stay safe.

Thanks for the reply and yes i figured i was in the right place. I have read several posts and GB here on the B-36. My fav is the B-17. I usually build models on my 3d printer. lol

Mainly starships and such. Look forward to learning alot here.
