This decal sheet from AirDOC focuses on the LTV A-7B Corsair II - VA-215 "Barn Owls" High-Visibility Scheme.  This particular decal sheet features 3 different A-7E Corsair II.  

• A/C # 1 is LTV A-7B Corsair II 154454/NM with VA-215 "Barn Owls" onboard the USS Oriskany in 1974.  This aircraft is painted FS 16440 Light Gull Grey on top and FS 17875 Gloss white on the underside as well as the nose cone, rudder and top of the tail.  Engine intake warning triangles are red and national markings are red/white/blue.  There is green squadron artwork of wings on the side of the fuselage behind the canopy.  There is also green on the rudder.  

• A/C # 2  is LTV A-7B Corsair II 154381/NM CAG aircraft with VA-215 "Barn Owls" onboard the USS Oriskany in 1974.  This aircraft is painted FS 16440 Light Gull Grey on top and FS 17875 Gloss white on the underside as well as the nose cone, rudder and top of the tail.  Engine intake warning triangles are red and national markings are red/white/blue.  There is green squadron artwork of wings on the side of the fuselage behind the canopy.  There is also rainbow coloured stripes on the rudder.  

• A/C # 3 is LTV A-7B Corsair II 154463/AE with VA-215 "Barn Owls" onboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt in 1977.  This aircraft is painted FS 16440 Light Gull Grey on top and FS 17875 Gloss white on the underside as well as the nose cone, rudder and top of the tail.  Engine intake warning triangles are red and national markings are red/white/blue.  There is green squadron artwork of wings on the side of the engine intake and tail.  There is also green on the tail and rudder with red stars.  

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 one of the aircraft which will assist in camo layout and decal placement for national insignia etc.  Also included is colour samples on the instruction sheets to help the less informed modellers figure out the various FS colours.  

The decals print by Cartograf come on 1 decal sheet with an insert decal sheet on the 1/72 sample before me.  They are clearly and crisply printed and appear to be of the highest quality.  

This is a very well done decal sheet with good variety and well worth purchasing......you've got to love these early colourful paint schemes.
