1/48 Hunter F.6 arrived from Hannant's today. At first glance I must say this kit looks wonderful. After building two Academy Hunters I can't wait to tackle this gem.
Surface detail is nicely done, cockpit looks nice, gear bays look VERY nice. I love how Airfix are including the option of closed gear doors on their new kits, and this one has something I've never seen before; doors that fit into the gear wells from the inside, making for a perfect fit. I'll be building int gear down, but I really like this feature.
The wing construction has a one piece upper surface with a large chunk of the upper fuselage, which eliminates the wing join seam that can be a really pain in the Academy kit. Parts are included for an FGA.9 too. I got it on sale when Hannants first got them, and for $30ish US I couldn't be happier.
