This is an excellent model. It wasn't produced for many years until recently when the original molds were re-used. It is not a difficult build and would appeal to intermediate to advanced modelists. Large, great detail, and fanstastic price. Five stars.

This B-17G with a full interior and optional clear plastic side allows you to make this into an education and historically accurate display piece even worthy of a museum!
