KIT #: 481204
PRICE: €3.60 from www.pjproduction.net
DECALS: None
REVIEWER: Scott Van Aken
NOTES: vacuformed

This canopy is for the F9F Panther. While no kit is specified, with the problem arising from the Trumpeter kit in regards to the incorrect frame angle, it seems to me that this is where it find its greatest use. The canopy is molded on thick plastic and is quite clear, though one can see a few tiny bits in there; like a bit of dust. The forward windscreen has the surrounding airframe molded to it, making it so much easier to install and fair this one in place. The easy to see frame lines will make masking this one a breeze and the thick plastic makes it a great deal easier to attach.
