Kari - Those are indeed the correct roundels - The Red Stars didn't come in until a few years later. when I still had that build I was often asked if it was an RAF What-if.

Thanks Lyle - I'm hoping this time around it'll look a lot better.

Wouh, thank you for the information! I was not at all aware of that detail regarding older type of Albanian roundels.
One learns everyday something! :-)

Yeah it took me a bit by surprise too. I've got another decal sheet coming covering the period of 92-2002 and they have the same ones there again too.

I feel ya Stuart. I tend to throw as much aftermarket stuff at a kit that I can, then wonder why it's taking me forever. :headslap:

I'm not really sure what to expect size wise, I've no real frame of reference.

Edit...

Actually, this is a really good shot of an Albanian IL-28 and Mig-17's.
