This other reference from
Flightpath is dedicated to the Vampire trainer from Classic Airframe range,
aside the fighter declination. This time the packet contains 133 parts with the
instrumentation on a clear film and 2 metal rods. The parts are very similar to
the single seat up date set, covering the cockpit, the fuselage and the wings
details. The differences are due to the trainer specifications: the exterior
canopy airframe obviously change for the “two side” layout front fuselage, the
forward reinforcements for armaments are deleted, but aside the different shape
for the instrument panel, we’ll find the pilots belts (why not included in the
single seat fret?). Here again the 7 pages notice accompanied by 14 color
pictures is the true example of what serious products must include to be
completed, and modellers will appreciate that. So, recommended without
hesitation.
