Parts are engineered for accurate lines and straightforward assembly when following the instructions. Finished models make attractive centrepieces for aviation displays or workbench portfolios.

Yes, cockpit upgrades, resin seats and photoetch sets can lift realism, though the boxed kit provides solid baseline detail.
Standard decal options are normally supplied for canonical schemes; check the kit contents and consider aftermarket decal sheets for rare liveries.
