Downscaling The Centuri Hornet to a Card Stock Model Part 5

1982 Catalog page

1983 Catalog Page

When you do research in old catalogs you sometimes find inconsistencies.
Right now I'm trying to scale the large decal and find it's correct positioning.

The "Magnum" Hornet was introduced in the 1981 Centuri Catalog. See it HERE
It had a black band stripe around the body tube below the fins, as shown in the right picture.
In the 1982 catalog (shown above left) that black band disappears. See it HERE
In the 1983 (shown above right in the last Centuri catalog) the black band is back! See it HERE

The 1982 catalog page is the easiest picture to work from.

The vertical black stripe from the "H" back to the leading edge of the single black fin is about the length of the fins root edge.
The "stinger" on the forward end of the Hornet is about 1/2 the body tube diameter.
When you don't have the original decals, sometimes it's a guessing game. As mentioned before, it'll be real close.
