This is an original Williams Brothers release and as such the molds are old and the kit has a great deal of molding flash. the instructions are very minimal, at times are contradictory, and show several model variants of the original aircraft y, but don't give any indication if these variations apply to any of the aircraft shown in the kit. Some parts have to be made or modified by the modeler. The decals take a long time release from the backing. Don't get impatient. If you try to brake them loose the will come part in small pieces. I found it's best to not install the small clear windows. Wait until after you paint the model and then fill the window openings with Elmer's White Glue. This will dry clear. This kit takes a lot of work, but can be made into a very nice model.

This model is not for beginners. A lot of part sanding and fitting have to take place in order to get a quality result. Parts do not have much details. Instructions are not too good either. But if you want to add to your model collection, the kit is a must build. Just have to take your time.

Well, this kit is not that bad The manufacturers do say clearly on the assembly instructions that because of the age of the kit and the fact it is hand-made and not computer-produced, some modifying does need to be made. That is very decent of them. Going by the previous comments from modellers on this kit, yes, I agree, you have to take your time assembling it, and work carefully, mainly in paring down or shaping the excess plastic from the sprues. But the end result is good and authentic. Let's face it, it's a must if you're serious about including a rarity in your collection that you can't get anywhere else
