Good kit. The panel line detail externally is very nice but then you get all the new detailing inside. This includes the bomb bay, with the option of fitting the bay doors open, the cockpit, nose and rear fuselage details as well. To go with this, they also include some useful parts in clear plastic to cater for the cabin glazing, but a couple of parts of the fuselage which you could leave unpainted so that internal detail might be better seen, especially on the nose section.
