NewRay 1:42 Cessna 172 Skyhawk with Wheel Diecast Aircraft,,

My affection for Cessna airplanes goes back to my childhood. I was looking for something to decorate my desk at work and this looked nice. Assembly was mostly simple. The only real difficulty was getting the screw that connects the wings also connects the rear landing gear. The single screw is a little tricky to get lined up properly but once it starts connecting the two parts go through the fuselage and tighten up fine. It is a little tail heavy so if it is placed on a flat surface the front section will tilt up easily. While the display stand is king of flimsy it does a decent job of holding the model at a climbing angle. Overall it is a good model. It probably would not hold up to any real play but to decorate a desk or use for a training tool it is worth having.
