    The Trumpeter site has the shorter version of the decal sheet: http://www.trumpeter-china.com/index.php?g=home&m=product&a=show&id=3924&l=en while Hobby Search has the longer one: https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/image/10995499 maybe one was the early release, i guess we'll find out when we get one and open the box.

    Thanks Dana, i kind of figured it had something to do with covering things up. Reminds me when i was stationed in West Germany, they said we should not have any white on our ball caps lest a MiG flying at 500kts at 200ft would see it and attack the base, not seeing all the green buildings, the long concrete runway, taxiways and dispersals.

    Why would they have tarps on the wings: https://artsandculture.google.com/asset/aircraft-carrier-hornet/TAHTP750hbdMAw no doubt they would be removed before flight. edit: here is another photo that have rudder covers on them to make them less colourful on the deck: https://artsandculture.google.com/asset/aircraft-carrier-hornet/9QHRucFM-lleig Jari

    Kev, hope the next print comes out within acceptable limits. If not perhaps try to print the outer wing sections as separate parts, that way it may make it easier for the machine to print the main centre wing section. Jari

    Here is one, not as yellow as the life vests but still yellow: Jari

    Craig here is a video of a Lancaster squadron at RAF Scampton in 1942 which might be of help: https://www.iwm.org.uk/collections/item/object/1060021063 Jari

    Watch the rocket pod on the one lifting off: the nose of the pod angles up just after lift off. Why, i don't know. Jari
