During the course of building your model, we suggest

you use a soft base for the building surface. Things like

a foam stand, large piece of bedding foam or a thick

bath towel will work well and help protect the model

from damage during assembly. This is not shown in the

instructions to provide the greatest detail in the photos.

When referencing directions (up, down, left,

right, top and bottom), these directions are in

relationship to the pilot sitting in the cockpit

of the aircraft unless noted otherwise.
