Spotted two centenary 1/48 decal sheets from Fightertown.  As a bonus sheet 48056 contains a pair of Tomcat whiffs!

48056 Navair Centennial Tri-tone Trifecta (+1), Super bug two seater, legacy bug, Seahawk, Prowler, 2x Tomcat whiffs
48058 Test/Eval Centennial Celebration, includes two legacy bugs in centennial schemes among others

Why get special decals when you could just use some from a WWII kit...as I am planning to do for an upcoming project :rolleyes:

Regards,

Greg

You get decals that exactly fit the model, plus some of the stencils are coloured differently to match the paint schemes.

Blimey, we ask for whiff decals then when we get them we moan about it.... :banghead:
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Even the Growlers at VAQ-129 are getting the retro scheme:

Its an AF photo off of af.mil.  Article was about how USAF EWOs are training at a Navy schoolhouse, and that since the retirement of the EF-111 Ravens, the Air Force hasn't had a fighter-sized EW platform.
