• Skill Level: Basic, suitable for modelers aged 14 and up

Purpose and Application

These decals are used to outline colored section markings, such as wing chevrons, fuselage bands, and engine cowlings, which were often bordered by thin black or white pin stripes as dictated by Bureau of Aeronautics (BuAer) regulations during the "Yellow Wing" era.

What's Included

• One decal sheet featuring multiple glossy black and white pin stripes
• All stripes are the same width for consistency
