Estes Orbital Transport, Kit #K-42, Part 22, Booster Decals






Again, the decals are arranged tight on the backing sheet.
Cut slow and carefully so you don't go into another decal.
The side stripe decal is narrow and long!
You'll have to trim so it fits tight over the front canard fins.

The inset picture shows a pencil line right above the rear edge of the canard fin.
For an easier transfer, the decal will be cut on this line and the two pieces joined.

The front half was applied first.

The rear half is applied and butted up against the front end.
Sight down the rocket body from the front to check straightness.
My home print ASTRON AEROSPACE LINES decal was set back slightly for better spacing around the door decal.


Sight down from the top to align the two name lines.


The nose cone decal went on easier than the glider cockpit decal.
