This latest release
from Aires
in a resin Martin Baker Mk.4-CA-2 ejection seat with photo etch seat belts for
the 1/32 BAE Lightning. 1/32 is a big scale that permits a very high level
of detail and this ejection seat is almost a kit in itself.

The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free. The kit itself is beautifully done and loaded
with detail. You then have the task of adding the photo etch seat belts
and separate photo etch seat belt buckles to the resin seat. Pose the
seatbelts as you choose. There are also resin ejection seat handles to add
to the top of the seat.
Once this seat is painted and
assembled, it will be the focal point of the cockpit in your next BAE Lightning
model.
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.
