Well- when I open box of this Eduard weekend edition kit, I find it have two decals options and both are for racers.. all right, let it go ;) Kit look simple to me, straightforward to build. fact that this is weekend kit in Eduard mean 'no mask papers', 'no extra decals', 'no etched set', so this is kit like every other we see at market. Best feature is pilot seat and interesting to note is decals which give good imitation of pilot belts. Content is here and sorry for shaking hands...  :-wise

Decal seatbealts I used to aply on tamiya masking tape and then use it as seatbealt, looks more realistic and not to hard to made it that way. This will be a nice bird, I'm following with great interest
