This model is a single seat plane. The cockpit is glue shut. It has no pilot/crew figures included.
This model includes many little parts that need to be assembled in place. The landing gear is optional, the pieces for the extended landing gear are included as well as the wheel well covers to display the model in flight. The propeller needs to be assembled in place as well as other little antennas. The assembly needed is very simple, but due to the small pieces, patience and skill are needed.
If one wants to mount the model on the display stand, the scoop at the bottom of the plane needs to be removed as it interferes with the display stand.
