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.
