From Floyd Werner, posted on ARC Forums:
"The pilot’s gunsight XM-73, does not have the glass portion of the site. It needs a resin replacement. The transmission doors have a strange pattern in them that is a little pronounced. Its on the real thing just not as pronounced.
The sand shields were missing. "
Rob Mignard's comment on ARC Forum:
"The only error I saw on the instructions directs the modeler to use the flush riveted synchronized elevators. Early G models had pop riveted sync elevators (parts C 37, 38, 39, and 40)."
