    Hi Nigel

    I have tried 3 sources

    1/144 direct on ebay Mehusla (Matt Sneddon) is a forum member - his son Rob runs the business from Falmouth in Cornwall. Fantastic service - occasionally 24hr turnaround from order to delivery!

    Also does a sheet of red/white/blue tail flashes

    Dom's Decals DomSkelton is also a forum member, working out of Sheffield. Smaller decal range (and smaller sheets) - I have had great service, but others have had delivery delays from time to time.

    Shed decals, which I purchased through Helmet Models (coz they have pictures of the sheets on THEIR website; Shed do not!
    MUCH larger sheets, incorporating tail flashes too, but composite in form; you have to apply the white disc first, then the blue-n-red cockade on top, to get the final result.

    Note that the cockades with white surround are needed on PC10 upper wing surfaces and fuselages in 1917; the cockades WITHOUT white surround are for CDL!

    hope this helps

    remember to post piccies of your Strutters when finished!

    cheers

    Thanks for this, that's pretty comprehensive advice so I'm off to check it out. I take it pretty much any number/letter set of the right scale can be used? Thanks again.
