I have to say something about the Kinetic Kit for the F-5A. I would not build a second one!
- Soft plastic,
- Details are not crisp
- horrible fit for the most important components
- Absolutely useless cockpit
- Wrongly moulded wing tip tanks
- Transparent canopy with lines inside the mould...

the list goes on...
