- This may be the best kit I've built this year, but not the best
- model, as I messed up on some of the decals.
-
- Overall appearance **** (on a scale from 1 to 5)
- Level of detailing ****
- Flash ****
- and what little there is is easy to remove
- Sinkmarks *****
- Parts fit *****
- practically no filler required
- Decals ****
- you have a choice of 7 different aircraft
- Instructions *****
- for example, there are instructions on how to make
- brakelines on your own with thin copper wire; the angle
- of landing gear an wheel is clearly shown; etc
- Design *****
-
- There are optional parts for gear up/down, cowling flaps
- open/closed -- with the instructions saying when either would be
- appropriate, canopy open/closed and a choice of anti-aircraft
- bombs or rockets.
-
- Highly recommended.
