Thousands of Japanese pilots trained on it, and its widespread use made this model a must-have for collectors and aviation enthusiasts of this period. The K5Y was used both in primary flight training and advanced aerobatic exercises and water landings.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Aires 4869 set offers highly detailed resin wheels—far superior in detail and quality to the standard plastic parts included in the original Otaki kit. The precisely rendered tire tread and rim details make the model look much more realistic once these accessories are installed.
