This new decal sheet from Blue Sky Models features one very special BAE Hawk in the 2006 90th Year Anniversary scheme for the BAE Hawk.

This special Hawk aircraft and is gloss night Black overall with yellow and blue stripes on the side of the fuselage and tail.

The tail features script 1916-2006 90th Anniversary.  On both sides of the fuselage is the yellow and blue artwork of a set of wings with an eye in the centre. 

The instructions are straight forward and also include painting instructions.  

The decals themselves are reasonably well printed on the 1/72 sample I have before me, but they aren't the sharpest printing I've seen.  

There are 2 pages of colour instruction sheets with 4 view colour drawings of this jet.  Paint colours are listed in6 different ways including BS and FS#'s as well as 4 brands of paint.  This decal sheet will be of interest to modellers that like to build colourful RAF demo birds.
