The instructions are clear and
include 3 views of each aircraft. The decals are beautifully printed on 1
decal sheet with 2 additional insert decal sheets. You also get one
complete set of stencils with instructions and line drawings showing stencil
placement. The 4 pages of instructions include all you need to install
these fine looking decals. The quality of the decals is top rate and in
perfect register.
I have always enjoyed seeing
decals of these brightly coloured USAF fighters that brought liberty to Europe
during WW2......this sheet includes 3 aircraft well worth building.
