For 1:72 it is a good kit. I have seen sprue shots and it looks just like the 1:48 with small variantions of course.

Howdy,
As I recall, it does not have the pipes going from the radiator to the engine. Simple enough to scratch. from sprue or wire. Otherwise, a real nice easy kit.

It's a great little kit , if you are happy with the other ones you pick up ( what the post man brought today ) You will not be disappointed . Eduard also has a dual combo in 72 scale as well which inclueds PE parts . And a solo one which came out a few years ago now before the release of the weekend kit .
I just wish they would do the Pfalz D.III / IIIa and the Albatros D.III in 72 scale
