Considering the limited use of the world's first turboprop powered strike fighter, it has generated a lot f interest and quite a few kits. One of them is the Trumpeter 1/48 version and Pavla has developed a fine cockpit set for it.

This set includes a superbly molded tub, ejection seat, instrument panel, roll-over frame, control stick, rudder pedals, side panels and anti-glare covering. The instructions are very nicely done and provide unambiguous drawings regarding where all the bits go. While color codes are provided regarding the painting of the parts, the instructions have forgotten to label what letter corresponds with what color. At least the names are provided so we can probably figure out what goes where as I'm sure that the cockpit interior won't be linen or red!

Overall, a great set to enhance your Trumpeter Wyvern.
