Good to know

This kit requires assembly with plastic cement (not included) and painting (paints not included). The instructions are clear, but due to the part count and small pieces, it is not suitable for beginners. The recommended age of 14+ reflects both the complexity and the presence of small parts. The Lufthansa livery is faithfully reproduced with high-quality decals.
