| Well guys the swordfish arrived todayand i must say it looks very good the detail is very sharp photo eched bracing wires and rubber tires the cockpit looks a real gem the seats have photo eched seat belts ,the rear machine gun also has photo eched sights .The engine is built up from ten parts ,the cockpit has all the treliss work too the wings have the option of being folded or open but this is either or in other words they do not swing the front windscreen is a nice touch as it is part of the upper decking so those of us with fat fingers won,t get glue all over the screen there is als an pe gunsight for the forward machine guns this took me sometime to find until i found it hangs from the mid section of the upper wing the torpedo is made up of nine parts this includes the cradle .There are markings for two aircraft but no sqadrons are given the paint number very good giveing mr hobby ,model master,tamiya ,humbrol this has been just a quick look at what seems to be a very well thought out kit i will post some picks as soon as i can .Ihave a very good feeling about this kit.BB Ps it does tell what sqadrons they are its on the side of the box Doe?

| That was quick work BB! A kit that size would keep me going a few months! Nice work so far, and the parts look nicely moulded, with all the lumps and bumps appearing to be in the right place. Looking forward to more pics mate.
