I hate to beat this subject to death, but I have a question for any of you experts on the issue of night lozenge. I have just received my Orion Night Lozenge decals and they are indeed the works of art as the rest of you have described. However, I have read this entire thread 4 times and the Orion instruction/description sheet several times, pulled out my Staaken datafile, pulled out my stash of Americal decals, etc., and still for the life of me, cannot figure out which aircraft subject these decals should go on.

I have:

both Roden Staaken models, 27/16 and 52/17

all Roden Gotha models, G.V and G.Va/b

and two Friedrichschafen G.II/III bombers

Which of these models are the Orion decals best suited for at this time, if any? I was a liitle confused by the enclosed list of Staaken planes and the descriptions of whether they were covered in pre-printed or painted fabrics. Of course, the lozenge decals (colors and patterns) in the kits also add to the confusion - no surprise there.

Thanks anyone.
