TwoBobs has been on a Hornet rampage for several sheets. This one continues the theme by offering three aircraft from VFA-22, the Fighting Red Cocks. Their motto is 'You Can't Beat a Red Cock', which has been toned down from what it was when I was in the Navy. At that time it was 'Every Woman Loves a Red Cock', but I digress.

This sheet has the now standard small detail photos, busy background, and addendum instructions for load-out. There are three aircraft options from which you can do two if you have an extra lerex-walkway decal. One is the CAG bird and the others are 'normal' squadron aircraft. The walkway and additional insignia decals are on a small addendum decal sheet that is included. I personally could do without the separate red bars for the insignia, but that was done to ensure no registration problems when using three colors.

The research and decals quality is first rate and sure to make your next F-18C as accurate as can be.
