Roland SachsenhoferThese pictures open the build report on Airfix's remarkable Swift FR.5. What a nice kit! The build opens, as usual, with the cockpit, although there are a few preparations to be made here. I exchanged the seat for a resin one, although I think the kit part can also show a nice result. The accuracy of fit is in the middle range, although the joining of the fuselage halves, as fitting samples reveal, will not be easy. However, this is also due to the complex interior of the bow area, as the pictures might suggest.
