Hi Rowan
The surface detail looks very good and so does the burner cans. Looking forward to this release.

Hi Rowan,
Many thanks for the info. I recently completed the AZ Model version and this looks like it just might go together a tad easier (or one can hope).
Cheers!

Wonder if there will be a folded wing option?

I can certainly see more then just as few 1st generation jets in my future with the up coming releases of a F2H and a F3H both in 1/48 scale.
