Funny you should say that..................

In front of me I just happen to have an Xtradecal Sheet X72129 'RAF Post War White Serial Letters and Numbers, 16", 18", 20", 24", 30" and 48"'.

The only problem is how to get them to you as I'm not officially allowed to take them to a Post Office, but I have a cunning plan.............  ;)
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards
Kit

Magic!  but don't get yourself into trouble Kit ---  thanks though

But looking at Hannants' I see I can buy that sheet. I think it would be easier if I got it from there Kit.

I got mine about 3 weeks ago, primarily for the 'MARINE' markings on the Mirage F1P.

See what Hannants will chare you for postage etc. Robert and get back to me if it's pricey, which it may well be.

I'll hold the cunning plan in abeyance.............   ;)

OK Kit, strange thing was, I looked on Hannants before I made my request here. Nothing came up for me, but as soon as you showed a sheet number, I put that in and 'bingo' --- and they've got 50+ of them. The sheet is just over £5 but that's with VAT. I'll sign in and see what 'my' price is. But thanks again Kit.

Hannants' search engine sometimes does seem to behave rather strangely at times  :-X
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Ordered from Hannants Kit, £4.99. When I went to check-out, I saw I had saved another sheet I was after which I had placed in the basket and forgotten about. So both are now on their way. Postage was £9+ airmail, the only option, but given it's for the Wyvern I'm not worried about it, I need them quick  ;D
