The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free. The detailing on the instrument panel is among
the best I've seen and the cockpit tub is very rich in detail and will impress
you. It's always sad to ponder that some of this lovely detail will be
hidden once the ejection seat is installed.
Aires has outdone themselves with
this cockpit set. The detailing is among the best I've seen and this is a
VAST improvement over the kit cockpit......you will not be disappointed if you
choose to use this cockpit set.
You can purchase this and other
fine resin detail items directly from Aires
or from the many retailers that carry their products. A list of some of
those retailers can be found here.
