Another review with build tips from Modelstories in France
On February 20, 1962, John Herschel Glenn, Jr. piloted the Mercury Atlas Friendship 7 spacecraft on America's first manned orbital mission of the Earth. After Launching from Kennedy Space center in Florida, Glenn successfully completed a three-orbit mission around the Planet. The Mission lasted 4 hours, 55 minutes, and 23 seconds from launch to impact, and during it Glenn reached an orbital velocity of 17,500 miles hour and a maximum altitude of approximately 162 miles. The flight was received with great enthusiasm and relief in the United States and many other countries, it also gave the United States even more hope of someday reaching the moon.

Great Kit
I was youth in California during the Cuban Missile Crisis, when I got this kit. It was a great kit, but the rug monster ate the mercury capsule. Glad to have a second chance at it.

Decals
I enjoyed working on this model and had great results. However, many of the decals were not shown in the directions. I had several decals left with no idea where to place them. The completed work looks great, but I would really like to have the leftover decals in place!
