The quality of the resin casting is
flawless and bubble free. One very special feature of these exhaust
is that one is open and one closed and it is common to have engine like this as
the F-14 tends to taxi with one one engine providing thrust. So it is
normal to see the exhaust like this with planes on the ground.
The detailing on this set is first
class and there is also some photo etch parts included to provide extra detail
up inside the exhausts. You
will be required to remove the parts from the casting blocks, but the
connection points aren't overly thick or problematic. The
2 pages of instructions are straight forward and easy to follow.
This is
beautifully done set and I am thrilled it includes an open and closed
exhaust.
You can purchase this and other
fine resin detail items directly from Aires
or from the many retailers that carry their products.
I would like to
thank Aires for
providing me with this product sample.
