This is a new decal sheet from Cutting Edge Modelworks.  The sheet includes markings for 1 F/A-18C in 1/32 scale. 

This is a brightly colored CAG bird with VFA-131 on the USS John F. Kennedy in the winter of 2002-2003.  The markings are directly related to the Sept 11 attacks.  The nose art features 3 firefighters from FDNY raising the Stars and stripes over the wreckage of the World Trade Center with the text "Still Flying Strong" (see scan at top of this page).

Markings also feature the text NYPD on the left Lex Fence and FDNY on the right Lex Fence.

On the outrsides of the tail are the snarling heads of white mountain cats with red, white and black stripes as the con-trails of a little white F/A-18.

The decals were flawlessly printed and the clear carrier film is trimmed very close to the crisply printed colored areas, which is always good to see.  

The instructions are clear and easy to follow and an extra page of text instruction with a small bit of info on this plane is also included. 

A very nice product and highly recommended.
