Spitfire Mk.I to VI European Theatre of Operations - errors

[DominikS]

I've recently bought Model Alliance's decal sheet "Spitfire Mk.I to VI European Theatre of Operations" and I'm disappointed.

First of all code letters colours don't match information from information sheet. For example: Johnny Kent's Spitfire is presented in Temperate Scheme with MSG code letters, whereas on the sheet code letters are "Sky"*. The same with Mk.II LR of No.152 Sqn. On the main sheet medium sea grey letters are very light grey instead of msg. And the sky are not sky but rather peas green. OK, there is a correction sheet for the MSG but not for Sky.

Secondly, the information on the info sheet is completely inconsistent with profiles. Let's take first Spitfire. The profile presents early Mk.I from No. 19 Sqn K9797 but the text informs us that "K9791 was painted in the "A" pattern[...]". Next example is Spitfire Mk.II (LR) P8388. Info states that:"P8388 was converted to a Mk.Vb standart from one of the first ever cannon armed Mk.Ib airframes[...]". According to information I've found It was only Mk.II - never Mk.Ib or Mk.Vb.

OK. This above is about MA-72114 and 48114.

Dear Model Alliance you did a piece of junk. I'm thinking about buying MA's 2nd TAF but frankly speaking I'm a bit afraid. 14 quid expense is for me quite big (imagine spending 80 Pounds for decal sheet). I think that you should send all the peaople who bought MA 72114 or 48114 also free correction set with Sky code letters, and corrected code letters for Kent's MK.Vb and Mk.II (LR).
