Raised panel lines except on "moving" parts. It´s not an issue for weathering if you see reference photos, those raised panel lines aren´t noticeable if you consider the scale.
There are some fit issues, lots of putty and sanding are required.
The most negative point is the clear canopy, you have to tone it to mimic real aircraft (I did the two-tone one).
Good overall quality, I only added more detail at the main gear bays.
The cockpit is simplified, but with the tinted canopy, it's not an issue.
The extended flaps look great at the "first" position. For a fully extended position, you will have to do some serious scratch building.
It's an old kit, it has its problems. But it's the best at this scale, and if you put some love in it, you'll have an awesome plane.
