Carefully remove all plastic parts from the sprues using a hobby knife or sprue cutters. Clean any flash or mold lines with a sanding stick or fine-grit sandpaper. Identify all parts according to the parts diagram.

Step 2: Cockpit Assembly

Assemble the cockpit interior components. Refer to the instrument panel decal sheet for applying details to the cockpit. Paint interior parts according to historical references or suggested colors.

Step 4: Wing and Tail Assembly

Attach the wing sections and tail stabilizers to the fuselage. Pay close attention to the dihedral angle of the wings. Use clamps or tape to hold parts in place while the adhesive cures.

Step 5: Landing Gear and External Details

Assemble and attach the landing gear, propeller, and any other external details such as antennas or armament. Use the etched parts for finer details where indicated in the instructions.

Apply a gloss clear coat before applying decals to prevent silvering. Cut out each decal carefully, dip it in water, and slide it onto the model. Use decal setting solutions to help the decals conform to surface details. Once dry, apply a final clear coat (gloss or matte, depending on desired finish) to seal the decals.
