The decals are in-register, clear and are beautifully printed by Microscale. Many of the markings and badges are 2 piece decals, ensuring good registry. Each aircraft's markings are separated on the sheet by a dashed-line to make it easier to differentiate them.

 

The instruction sheet has 4-view drawings to assist in decal placement, and numerous notes point out tips on specific decals, along with British Standard numbers for paint references. There are notes on the recent change to the Tornado variants' paint schemes as well.

This sheet retails for £6.95 / $11.49 and is available through:
