B 17 Bit o Lace

Hi,
just received the B 17 Bit o Lace. Plane is great but there is one thing i'm considered of. The nose art is a decal and not pad printed. I just thought that only 909 has the decal. Anyone has noticed the same who got BOL? Hop over time it wont fade or wears out. That would ruin this great plane.

Regards
Daywalker

Yep, not only is it a decal but part of it also lays right over the extreme lower left corner of the starboard gun window....

Don't worry skunky - I'll volunteer to take it off your hands - I'll even give you $31 for your trouble - so you'll have made a profit on that one!
