    I did a lot of measuring and made up files for PLAAF decals some years ago. (lost files in computer crash). What I discovered was a lot of inconsistency in actual dimensions between "original" airplanes from China. Obvious to me that these insignia and paint are field applied, much like our military practices. As example I have a 80's era book of USAF colors and schemes, not real precise except for color numbers which I'll bet vary by batch. Craig Payne

    Yes, 24" x 58/59" I have a vectored graphic file my printer made up to get them printed full size. It's about 12 megs so can't post it but will mail it to anyone who is looking to print their own. I just picked up my plane last week and the graphics (semi-painted over) look like they were spray-can applied standing as far away as they could :-) Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=351333#351333
