Good luck with this one. I really enjoyed this kit! Make sure you install the right wing tips unlike me!

Thanks you, mates.
Yes, Vincent, the short wingtips are installed. I have been researching photos of this Craft for months: being an American subject is a total enigma for me. At least,for the Mustang, the engine was a Merlín....
By the moment, although It has some assembly issues, appears to be an easy one. These photos resume 4 manhours, while I expected a total of 12-15.

The Revell Corsair is not a bad kit by all accounts, l was watching reviews on what one to get, it was between Tamiya n Revell, l did get Tamiya in the end, as you described few fit issues, but nothing that can't be easily fixed.
I quite like the problem solving in building.....it adds extra level achievement when finished, best of luck..... doing well so far 👍👍👍

Thanks, Mr D: really, all comments I inspected regarding this kit were terrible. But, as in the case of the Fulmar,, I found a rather correct kit. It has issues, like anything in this life. But I am very surprised of the fact that, having expent only the half of the time I expected for the kit, I am too Closer to the final step.

8 hours.I am begining to think that this model is an 'easy' one, bearing in mind that I've expent more than 16 hours on an old Airfix Firefly 5 and is on the first steps.

In the end, this one has been a total of 9.5 manhours, 2.5 less than expected. I am afraid that my next Revell one (ex-Frog Gannet), will need much more...

Great result! Good luck with the Gannet. I think that one is indeed a lot harder.
