Plans are complex, but straightforward. As noted above, there are some inconsitencies between views on the plans, so "measure twice, cut once" applies here. The flap joiner setup is overly complex, and can be easily simplied.

Fuse uses a former and stringer contruction method, framed up on a crutch. Wing is standard construction, with sections removable outboard of the nacelles. Tail is built-up, airfoiled, and quite complex due to the rudder linkages that must be installed.

Canopies available are excellent and reasonably priced. Nose bubble, pilot canopy, rear gunner placement, top turrett and side blisters are all supplied.

Scale detail is good, with scale hinging on the tail, hidden flap linkages, etc, and markings for gear doors, bomb bay doors, etc.
