    LCSP #
    STS-LAD-1-72
    The Lake County Space Port Late Era Shuttle Orbiter AFRSI & White Tile
    Decal Set
    includes all of the “white” Thermal Protection System (TPS) areas, and other special detail areas, which are common to all late-era Space Shuttle Orbiters - OV-103 “Discovery,” OV-104 “Atlantis” and OV-105 “Endeavour.”  They
    were originally sized to fit the 1/72 scale Monogram Space Shuttle Orbiter model, but is also applicable to the Revell 1/72 scale Space Shuttle Orbiter
    .
    The Late Era
    AFRSI & White Tile
    Decal Set
    is intended to be combined with the Standard Orbiter Black Tile Decal Set to create a complete Thermal Protection System for your Orbiter model.
    You will need to properly pre-paint the model with the proper base colors. Our full-color instruction provide the guidance.
    To create these decals, I found documents published by United Space Alliance (
    USA), the former Shuttle processing contractor, which contained drawings of the port side of the Orbiter's forward section (hatch side), as well as the port side Mid-Body. I was also able to find a drawing of the vertical stabilizer, but in a much lower-grade of resolution.
    Using these as “feed stock,” I revised the original 1/144 scale white tile nose sections for the Shuttle Tile Decal Set, re-did the artwork for the vertical stabilizer, added "strip sections" of AFRSI for OMS Pod work and other "touch-up areas," added the "still required" sections of the original Shuttle White Tile decals for the area around the cockpit windows and OMS Pod fronts, included a properly tiled front window frame and printed the whole thing on Clear Decal stock, as a "Proof Sheet."
    This proof sheet was used to do the recently completed 1/144 scale “Endeavour” shown docked to the Revell ISS on the website. These decals were then re-scaled to work on the 1/72 scale Monogram & Revell Orbiter models.
    The set is printed on a full-size sheet which contain the following TPS areas:
    White Tiles for Crew Compartment Top & Side Surfaces (cockpit area top & behind windows))
    White Tiled OMS Pod front surfaces
    Forward Fuselage AFRSI Surfaces (forward for Cockpit to nose Black tiles)
    AFRSI for Mid-Body sides (below Payload Bay Doors)
    AFRSI for Payload Bay Door Lower surfaces (above door edge)
    AFRSI for Port & Starboard Inner Wing Upper Surfaces and AFRSI Panels behind the leading edges.
    AFRSI for Vertical Stabilizer Sides
    AFRSI for OMS Pod rear access panels
    Additional AFRSI strips for repairs and completion of the OMS Pod surfaces.
    NEW! Additional corrected upper wing ADRSI patterns and correct size livery markings, provided by
    Space In Miniature
    .
    Please note - The Late Era Orbiter AFRSI & White Tile Decal Set must be combined with the Standard Tile Decal Set in order to complete the overall TPS system for the specific late-era Orbiter you are modeling.
    The set comes with four sheets of specifically designed tile & AFRSI decals and a full-color instruction guide.
    Remember - this listing is for a decal set for the building of your own model project. LCSP does not currently offer pre-built models of the Space Shuttle.
