The stencil data is extremely complete and captures all the servicing markings that were very prevalent on these white aircraft.
Look for Twomikes forthcoming resin releases to enhance this kit!

include 2 views of each aircraft and 4 views of 2 of the aircraft. The decals are beautifully printed on 1
decal sheet. Paint codes are called out in FS #'s, Testors MM,

This latest release is riding a
wave of excitement among modelers with the release of the much anticipated 1/48 Twobobs T-2C Buckeye
model kit.
