The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free. This cockpit set is detail rich in every area as
you can see in the photos. There are resin parts that will need to be
attached to your canopy CA glue fumes will fog canopies, so make sure you
coat your canopy parts in Future before you try to CA glue the photo etch parts
to your clear canopy parts.
The details on this cockpit set
are very well done and this is a excellent choice if you are building the 1/48 F-100C Super Sabre
from Trumpeter.
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.
