Also, I printed a 12x18 on matte paper of No. 7. It is amazing, and every detail is preserved. It is now on the wall.

Nope,

#7 is a C-47, #4 is a F-111


I know it's hard to tell, and a lot of people think Mustang on #7. There aren't enough clues in the photo.

Anyways, what do you guys think of the set? Anything stand out? Anything suck?

I first thought C47, especially since these are D-Day markings
