The Gloster Meteor found service on a world-wide scale and Brazil had 61 fighters and ten trainers, one of which is represented in this 90x60 mm sheet provided as usual in a clear zip-lock bag. The decals are glossy on a deep blue backing sheet and are designed for the Azure-Frrom kit FR0045 although I guess they could be used on any T7 model.
The sheet is accompanied by a single black and white printed A4 instruction sheet, which is in both French and English. As well as the location of decals, the sheet also gives some history and painting guides. The unit insignia is a splendid bit of printing. There is an erratum concerning the mis-printing of the tail flash and a spare exhaust band is provided.
If this is your area of interest then this sheet is recommended with the caveat about the yellow markings
Thanks to Azur Frrom for the sample
