The one on the bottom needed a couple of cuts between the intake and fuselage on each side to allow it to be pushed down into the gap. They work really well with microsol and microset and are amazingly resistant to tearing, but they will only stretch so far. Couldnt quite get a perfect lineup between the one on the tail and on the sides, but thats probably just my cackhandedness. There are a couple of mistakes on the decals too, especially the gear doors. ( i posted pics of this error in the training types group build) A few are the wrong colour and the airfix ones were used instead, and the airfix ejection seat triangles were better as well. It all works out if you check the actual plane and you can get a really good match by mixing the two sets. Its such a nice looking scheme i would reccomend this set absolutely.

Great build, Misty!! I like! Is this the 1/32nd Revell Of Germany kit? I have that one in my stash, with the Red Arrows decals.
