The F-105"Thunderchief" is a personal favorite of mine, so when I saw the Hobby Boss kit I knew what will be my next project. The kit itself is very good with highly detailed rivet and beautiful engraved panel lines.

The fit of the parts is quite good and I needed to use a very  small amount of putty.  I build it mostly oob and I added a resin ejection seat from Legend and from Eduard I used the F-105D Thunderchief Detail Set and the Remove Before flight tags.  The technicians were taken form the Hasegawa ground crew set and the F.O.D Covers and wheel chocks are scratch built.

For me it was a great plane to build and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
