I'm trying to find a set of USAF decals for a 1:72 C-7 Caribou. I've checked squadron.com and tried using google and yahoo and I've had no such luck.

As far as I know Hobbycraft are the only people making a 1/72 Caribou and the decals for the kit are the only ones around.
From pictures I have seen of the completed kit you should pretty much able to improvise using decals for other planes.
Here's a review of a Caribou some guy did it mentions some decals he replaced and where he found them.

Good Luck

That's the first place I checked and I couldn't find any. I think Hobbycraft make the only 1/72 Caribou so it isn't too likely you will find too many decal companies making products for just one model. I hope I'm wrong, good luck with the search.

Well it's looking like you're right. I was expecting this result just because it is the only 1:72 Caribou
