A nice kit of an important but long neglegted subject. I've just finished assembly of mine and would recommend an optivisor for this kit. I have never needed one before but the amount of small parts in this one makes it essential (especially for we older modellers. One point I found was to be extra careful when cleaning up parts as you may inadvertently shave off a mounting point as i did.
I heartily recommend this kit and look forward to other kits by this manufacturer (like a nice 6 pdr or three - hint, hint ).
