The two decal sheet includes all the unique markings and serial number plus a selection of roundels and fin flashes. The second sheet is restricted to black and white codes and serial numbers.
Conclusion
The decals are superb with perfect print and colour and they are nice and glossy with very little carrier. Most highly recommended to all Mossie fans.
