Nice looking kit but like all Guillows kits it is over-engineered and some of the balsa is heavier than really necessary. However it's easy to remove excess balsa as you go go along. The full size Scout has fuselage sides that are flat and slab-like in appearance with no evidence of the internal structure ( google images of the full size aircraft) so it's important to sand the model's fuselage sides to get an even finish if you want to capture the distinctive appearance of the full size Morse Scout.
