The 6 pages of instructions are clear and
include multiply views of each aircraft, plus you also get a page with 4 view
line drawings showing stencil placement. The decals are beautifully
printed on 2 decal sheets with 2 insert decal sheets and includes landing gear,
ejection seat, weapon pylon decals and helmet decals. Plus 2 sets of formation lights and a set
of data markings. The quality of the decals is first rate.
This is a very complete decal sheet with
plenty of variety
for your next VX-9 jet. I am impressed with the "Playboy
Bunny" and "Go Navy" jets.
