This kit is kind of a pain, definitely does not live up to modern kit standards. Lots of sanding, putty and patience is required to build this kit .It does not include intakes, so if you look down the scoops its just a void of plastic inside the aircraft. Not sure this is the best option for a legacy hornet, I recommend looking around for other kits before pulling the trigger on this one.
