My decals came from Fantasy Printshop but I forgot to download the additional instructions, so I only have the single sheet provided, which contains a side view of each aircraft and camouflage schemes, although the "full" instructions contain history, color notes and weapons loadouts for each aircraft.

As always, the decals are printed by Fantasy Printshop in perfect register.

A recommended sheet!
