Found this, it does look like 'TURBINE EX'

Thanks Dave.....I reckon it is "TURBINE EX", and in the absence of evidence to the contrary that's what I might run with for now.
Thanks for your help mate.

Hiya TOR
I scanned in those decals at High resolution so these are larger than life (of 1/72) I have the proper USN fonts available so I can print better numbers / texts than are done on this sheet, not knowing exactly how you want to finish this model tell me which elements of this sheet you require and tell me their approximate size on your model (in mm) that way I can fine tune and scale them to your size with alternative slightly bigger and slightly smaller examples so you can pick the best ones

Hi Wal,
Thanks for looking at this, especially give that you fell unwell.
I plan on doing the civvie (NACA) Skyrocket, (and guess which category I wanna enter her in :D ), so I will not need the USN roundels/titles.
According to my references however I will need everything else on that sheet of yours.
The dimensions of the model are as follows
Fuselage length: 24 CM
Wing Span: 13.5 CM
Horizontal stab span: 6.5 CM
Vertical stab height: 4 CM
Is there any other measurements you need??
Thanks again Wal
