Kit decals were lost. Found roundels in spares box, but will need to make codes and numbers. Tail numbers will be printed, codes painted and masked. Decided on Closterman's tempest with Eduard markings. Some decals will have to be printed.

One horizontal stabilizer lost, made new from plasticard. Kit has very heavy raised detail. Will sand some down, especially where decals will go.
