  General - The DML kit is very good, even if we can find some points to correct regarding the shape of the wings. I have not changed the wing shape in order be able to finish the model ASAP. I used a PAVLA resin ejection seat. The cockpit had to be ajusted to accomodate the PAVLA ejection seat. 

  Decals - I have bought a Microscale decal to get a Chinise version. For the aircraft serial number (502) I had to get the number 5 from my Revell MIG-21.

  Paints - I used HUMBROL (upper surfaces) and Vallejo (lower surfaces).

  Details - I had to create almost of the cockpit details. I also added some cables in the main gear and front gear. The exaust jet tube was made by a plastic tube using the original part to close the exaust tube. The canopy is very good, I just had to add the open/close canopy system. The air intake had to be adjusted in order to avoid to see the cockpit.

  I strongly recomended this kit. Its easy to construct and at the end you have a good result.
