Great plane
I usually build plastic models, but these can be a nice change every once in a while. The kit supplies you with everything you need, except for the glue. As far as putting the wood together, that's pretty easy. Getting the plastic pieces off their sheet can be tricky. The kit comes with tissue paper to go over the plane so it can be flown outside. In my opinion, the planes look just as good without the tissue as they do with. The best tools to have are a sharp knife, lots of sand paper, and Elmer's glue
Too much plastic
This Guillow kit is meant for display and really not intended to be built as a flyer. I prefer display models so I bought it. Guillows provides too much plastic. Rather than build up many of the components of the plane with balsa, Guillow provides formed styrene parts that are not easy to work with. Aside from that all other aspects of the model are very good. I would recommend this kit only if the builder has a LOT of time spent dealing with plastic parts.
