Pavla has released a resin cockpit set that includes a new vacuformed canopy, cockpit tub with console detailing, instrument panels, control sticks, seats, and a section that fits behind the cockpit. It also contains the periscope system for the back seat instructor and two compressed air bottles. There is some cutting to remove kit sections to use this set, but it seems pretty simple stuff to me. Full instructions are supplied that include painting information and assembly. For kits, you have both the Airfix and Heller kits available and while the instructions only list the Heller, the header card states it is for both kits. i

As with all Pavla items, this one is very well done and easy to use.
