*** Academy kit decals are awful,it took me six months to get a replacement set vis the UK agents,then they had the nerve to ask me to pay for them ! they just crack up when immersed in water,something to do with the backing film,it is about time they got their house in order and issued decent decals with their kits,get in touch with Toyway at Letchworth and show them your disgust at the decal quality of these kits.

Ive tried everything from PVA glue , decal cote , Johnstones klear, , even wall paper paste.
it's just that nose number ...
Thanks for taking the time to read this
