Another Trumpeter home run. No flash, very minimal clean up needed. Parts fit is great if a little tight in some areas. Nice cockpit and engine detail. Be sure to dry fit all bulkheads before gluing fuse halves together. Lots to line up. Glue the instrument panel and floor together but leave the seat bulkhead just pushed into the floor but not glued until installed into fuse half. It needs to be loose to be glued to the fuse correctly (the instructions don't tell you that). Also dry fit the forward bulkhead with the engine mounts very carefully to be sure you have the correct position (it's tricky). Many have said they don't like the PE hinges and I don't either but I did use them just to insure position of the moveable control surfaces. The control surface can be position and then glued if desired. Very enjoyable build. Love Trumpeter's kits especially in this scale

Worth getting beautiful kit great size lots of detail on cockpit,open or closed gun bays
