Wingz | P-51 Cockpit

Reviewed by Alan Troi

Hey guys, this set is compliments of my own wallet. I pre-ordered it directly from VLS. I am quite impressed with it and the fit is great. All parts are cast air bubble free and with minimal flash. The removal of the casting blocks was also minimal in terms of time and work. The instruction sheet is comprehensive and well detailed. I am quite impressed with this set, it has great detail and represents all major areas of the P-51 cockpit well. I have therefore ordered two complete sets! The clean up of the side walls on the kit is also minimal, and therefore requires hardly any surgery to the kit parts!

The fuel tanks are well represented and well as the seat pan and there are molded on seatbelts. I prefer to do my own with ribbon and PE buckles. But this molded representation is quite nice.

I would heartily recommend this set to anyone who is considering detailing up the ole Hasegawa kit. Who knows, if and when a new tool 32nd 'stang ever hits the market, I have my Wingz set ready!
