CONCLUSIONS

The decals rival those found in larger scale kits. As usual they are sharp and well registered.  While made specifically for the USS Enterprise they could be used on other late war carriers.

This is set #700-103 1/700 USS Enterprise CV-6 Air Group Markings for $10.00 US. Highly recommended. You can get this decal set from Starfighter Decals. Check the webpage for more details.
