--------------------

This new decal sheet from Fightertown Decals includes markings for two different 1/48 F-14A's with VF-24 Renegades.  For one of the aircraft you get the choice of 2 markings schemes......effectively giving you 3 F-14's on this decal sheet.  This decal sheet also includes landing gear, ejection seat, helmet and patches decals.  I wish more manufacturers would include full decals for the landing gear and other areas on our models such as the ejection seats.  

The first aircraft is a F-14A "201" BUNO 160669 Dec '95 - July '96.  The paint scheme for this aircraft is FS 35237 and FS 36375 and FS 36320.  The rudders are black with white rudders.  The decals for this aircraft come in the Rage 201 (Black version) as well as the Rage 201 (Euro 1 gray version).   

There is a long list of people that helped on this sheet that reads like a who's who of ARC members.  Special thanks goes to Mike Pister, Brian Marbrey, Andy Mullen, Darren Roberts, Herb, Mav, Beavis, Yank, Jazz, Butthead and the rest of VF-24.  Well done Guys!!!  

 

The second aircraft is a F-14A "207" BUNO 160689 Dec '95 - July '96.  The paint scheme for this aircraft is FS 35237 and FS 36375 and FS 36320.    

The instructions are clear and include 3 views of each aircraft.  The decals are beautifully printed on 1 decal sheet.  The quality of the decals is first rate. 

A very complete decal sheet from this new manufacturer and I look forward to seeing more of their future releases.

I would like to thank Fightertown Decals for providing me with this review sample and I wish them success in their new venture.
