This new 1/32 SJU-17 NACES  Seat resin Ejection seat from Cutting Edge Modelworks is designed to replace the kit seat in F-18C/D/E/F.  The 1/32 Academy F/A-18C is a wonderful kit, but it's seat leaves much to be desired to say the least.  A highly detailed resin seat can make all the difference in improving the look of a cockpit....especially in 1/32 scale.  This particular seat from Cutting Edge Modelworks is full of crisp realistic detail.  The piping, hoses, rivets and seatbelts all look identical to the real seat.  The seat belts and seat cushion/cover have that natural pose to them.  I highly recommend this seat for anyone building a 1/32 F/A-18.

I would like to thank Cutting Edge Modelworks for providing me with this review sample.
