Phil Marchese
The nacelles, engines and interpretation of the low altitude props are the low points of the kit. Clear parts are thick and some shaped with less fidelity than the fuselage. Aftermarket corrections are availble and some are well reseached. Matchbox product select was very good and this offering reflects that policy. Too bad so many major companies are not so inclined today.
