The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free. The detail on the cockpit tub and sidewalls
is very well done. The detail on the resin instrument panel coamings is
exceptional and very delicate as is the detail through out the cockpit.....this
set is loaded with detail. The seats are beautifully detailed and once the
photos etch seat belts are added, they will be the crowning glory to this
cockpit set.
There are 4 pages of instructions
and they are well laid out with line drawings.
This cockpit set captures all the
wonderful detail that is found on the real aircraft and I must say I'm
pleasantly surprised to see this level of detail in a 1/72 cockpit set.
This cockpit set will be a wonderful addition to the 1/72 F-16I Sufa from Kinetic.
You can purchase this and other
fine resin detail items directly from Aires
or from the many retailers that carry their products.
I would like to
thank Aires for
providing me with this review sample.
