### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Read the instructions and the drawings
*by D***C on 30 July 2020*

This is a fantastic kit with excellent drawings and instructions. My advice before starting is to read both the booklet and study the plan in detail and make sure you have all the bits needed. I have not completed the model but have a fusilage, wing assembly and tailplanes ready for the next stage. Well done Vintage models
