3November 4, 2024What is in the box: wings, tail, bottom of fuselage, small parts
4November 4, 2024DEcals in the box and my own project decals ( Stropdecal)
5November 5, 2024Considering the reputation of Amodel , the parts fit nicely together on this kit
6November 6, 2024I decided not to follow the kit instructions to build the front , middle fuselage and tail cone and to glue these assemblies together as there a no location pins . Instead I glue the left and right parts together with superglue and added an internal reinforcement . The tail and wing go together with no problems, just a little filing to remove the sprue connection
