Hello,
really a fantastic work.
I build over 25 years scale aircraft models, and the mostly model kits are to complex and not well planned.
With so many construction aid as in these model kits here is a guaranteed success.
I have ordered for me a Farman HF 20 kit, I hope that the order arrives, because I speak no Russian and the return of all emails are written in Russian.
Thanks and greetings
