Be aware that the decals for the tail is transparent. If I had known this I would have painted the tail white before adding the decals 😣

Oh, bummer. Looking good on the pictures, though. I don't have that decal set, but I have the one for Rygge.
How's the fit of the kit?

The kit is excellent when it comes to how the parts fit.

95% of the decals are on. As mentioned I´m not impressed with the quality of the Vingtor set. The decals are transparent and very brittle. They have a tendency to break up when moved into position. They also donˋt react very well to decal setting. 😒

I finished the Thunderjet and it turner out rather bad. There is nothing wrong with the kit but I messed up the paintjob and as earlier mentioned the aftermarked decals was terrible to work with. Well, lessons learned, on with the next one.

The photos show a very good result in spite of the problems you mentioned.
