Well engineered kit, basically accurate BUT small irritating inaccuracies such as: trailing edge of wings curved instead of straight, leading edge radiator openings wrong shape, headrest sits at wrong angle above cockpit cill, engraved frame line in wrong place on cockpit canopy. Also all flying surfaces are not separate pieces, they are moulded into wings, tailplanes and fin and are poorly scribed/delineated. Landing and formation lights are not clear pieces and the scribed circles for the landing lights are in slightly the wrong place. Decals - the code letters and roundels are the wrong colours (code letters should be medium sea grey or sky not white and red on roundels is too bright). So - this kit requires a lot of work and decals need replacing in order to produce an accurate finished model.Read full review

Well detailed and not a huge number of parts... After sales parts are also available to improve details (wheels) strengthen and improve detail (metal undercarriage), aid painting (masks for the clear plastic cockpit canopy) and alternative decals. Do plenty of scope for the basic or advanced modeller.

Good quality kit, well presented with good decals. This kit would merit 5 stars across the board. But at this price £34 it is £10 over priced.
