"I received this as a 30th birthday gift, I have been building since I was 5 years old. There are a lot of pieces. A brick separator tool is included. It took about 4 hours at a leisurely pace to build this model. The flight control surfaces move, and despite a previous reviewer's comments the surfaces do move correctly, I should know I am a certified flight instructor and professional airline pilot. The value is incredible and it is sturdy enough to play with as long as the person doing the playing is not too rough with the aircraft.
I highly recommend this model for any LEGO, aviation, or model enthusiast."
