I'd think you really need a replacement set Ian. Surely the decals don't have to be from the 1970s, many of them would have been damaged badly over that time.
Think your right Joe just that I can't seem to find any F3 decals may have to go for a set of F8

Looks great, poor old decals. And would you believe it, last weekend, one flew over my house.

You could replace the codes with letters from Xtradecal sheet 'X72189' available from Hannants for £4.99. There are also sheets of roundels and fin flashes in the Xtradecal range. I've got several sheets in 1/48.
I'd needed to get 2 sets Dave there are only 2 Q's and I would need 4

I would do a different aircraft from the same squadron.Only two 'Q's needed then.It wouldn't matter to me that the serial is wrong.Decal sheets like this are always handy to have.Ive got a box full that I've collected over the years.
