The 1/32 Academy F/A-18C is a wonderful kit, but it's seat leaves much to be desired to say the least.  A highly detailed resin seat can make all the difference in improving the look of a cockpit....especially in 1/32 scale.  This particular seat from Cutting Edge Modelworks is full of crisp realistic detail.  The piping, hoses, rivets all look identical to the real seat.  The seat belts are not included so you can create those yourself and pose them exactly the way you want.  The seat cushion have that natural pose to them.  Also included if a resin grab handle to go between the pilots legs on the front of the seat.  I highly recommend this seat for anyone building a 1/32 Academy F/A-18C.

I would like to thank Cutting Edge Modelworks for providing me with this review sample.
