The 3 aircraft are all baremetal 9th Air force Jugs with full or partial D-Day stripes.

Howard Curran in France in the fall of 1944. 

• P-47D-27-RE ser. # 42-26860 "Angie", 512th FS with the 406th FG, 9th Air Force.  Bare metal aircraft with a yellow engine cowl ring and red/ blue/yellow stripes on the tail.  Noseart is a sexy looking lady in shorts, a bikini top and high heels. This plane has partial D-Day stripes on the underside.  Flown by Col. Anthony Grosetta in Belgium in early 1945.   
• P-47D-27-RE ser. # 42-26922 "Little Ann", 512th FS, 406th FG, 9th Air Force.  Bare metal aircraft with a yellow engine cowl ring and red/ blue/yellow stripes on the tail.  Noseart is a sexy looking blonde topless lady in shorts. This plane has partial D-Day stripes on the underside.  Flown by an unknown pilot in Belgium in early 1945.  

The instructions are clear and include 3 views of each aircraft.  The decals are beautifully printed on 1 decal sheet with 2 additional insert decal sheets.  You also get one complete set of stencils with instructions and line drawings showing stencil placement.  The 4 pages of instructions include all you need to install these fine looking decals.  The quality of the decals is top rate and in perfect register.

I have always enjoyed seeing decals of these brightly coloured USAF fighters that brought liberty to Europe during WW2......this sheet includes 3 aircraft well worth building.
