I really did enjoy building this kit, despite some minor problems. There were several pieces that needed to have flashing removed. Some fits required a little filling and sanding. My only real problem was the centerline fuel tank. In my opinion it was too large. It rested against the sides of the intake ducts and the front of it hung over the nose gear wheel well. I decided to leave it off. That said, this is a beautiful model and I recommend it highly.
