Next in the latest line of Pavla upgrade pieces is for the recently issued Italeri 1/72 Sunderland. I have to assume that the kit's engine cowlings leave something to be desired in terms of detail, but that is no longer an issue. This Pavla set includes all four engine cowlings, a new forard cowling section, and the exhaust pipe. A small intake is also part of the package. These are a direct replacement for the kit parts so should be a breeze to install. I should also mention that the cowling pieces are held clear of the main pour stub by small braces.
