    Fits well together
  

*by M***8 on Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2021*

I loved this kit. Never built this one from airfix. Very easy to build. Very professional looking. Parts all went together great. Great details inside and out. Decals went on good.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    This is a great kit of a classic aircraft and goes together well ...
  

*by I***M on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 9, 2018*

This is a great kit of a classic aircraft and goes together well although the fit is tight due to modern moulding it`s wise to make sure you sand of the mould seams on the joins.The only tiny gripe is that I wish all the kit makers not keep doing the same old decals for "popular airframes".

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Lovely kit.
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 1, 2020*

Loved the kit and it brought back many happy memories of working on the real thing back in the ‘60s.
