  It is basically an out of the box build except for the cockpit which is a resin item from Pavla.

  The new cockpit is a beautiful little gem and drops into place with little modification required to the kit.

  The model is painted in Humbrol enamels and weathered using washes of raw umber and light post shading with Tamiya Smoke.

  The kit falls together, a realy trouble free assembly. The decals caused a few problems. They did not want to move once applied, the Suez Stripes did not settle down very well even with a lot of decal softner and the white parts of the roundles are translucent. I did not use the finlet decals as they were the wrong colour.

  Apart from that, a lovely kit.
