This
decal sheet offers a very good selection of A-7's from the end of it's
career.
The
instructions are beautifully printed in glossy full colour with numbered
arrows showing which decals go where. Each aircraft is shown from
one angle and there is generic colour drawings showing top and bottom views of the
A-7 which will assist in camo layout and decal placement for national
insignia etc.
The
decals print by Cartograf come on 1 decal sheet on the 1/72 sample
before me. They are clearly and crisply printed and appear to be of
the highest quality. Each aircraft has some sort of tailart, no sexy pin ups.....but interesting none the less.
You get 2 sets of stencils.
This is a very well done
decal sheet with good variety and well worth purchasing.

I would like
to thank AirDOC

review sample.
AirDOC

vintage aircraft as well as decals covering vintage and modern aircraft.
