June 2012 Military In Scale magazine has a useful build article on the kit, a dozen color profiles, and two pages of "in detail" photos which are mostly airshow shots.

The kits seats I have read in several review described as basic. However the Folland light weight ejector seat was pretty minimalist and they are as detailed as Aeroclub's. The main features are the shoulder braces that were missing from the original kit's seats, are nicely represented.
