@Finn yes, however, ResKit is producing two separate sets as a D. One is what the call “early” and the other as the “late” but they are both the same according to their photos.

@Dave Williams yes, the APR-25 RHAW scope is another item that was added later on. My understanding is that the “early” IPs did not have the NASAAR bowl at the bottom of the panel until later on, as it is shown in the Jenkins book, and later retrofitted as you said to all D models. That is what makes an “early” D. No radar scope and vertical tape instruments. The B model had round dials.

Let me start off by saying I enjoy ResKit and their products. They have released some amazingly detailed aftermarket stuff for our aircraft models we thoroughly love building. That being said, I felt the need to begin a discussion of their newly designed F-105D Thunderchief cockpits. There is no malice intent with my post here.

Wow. That's a lot of stencils! Fantastic work. The amount of pictures are appreciated also so as to get a great view of your talent.

There are two other established threads on the subject already. One in the Jet Modeling subforum and the other in the Caracal Decals one.

Oohh very nice! -
Not able to crack open any of my reference books that are at home whilst I am at work, but just out of curiosity, what kind of markings would we be able to depict an F-86A in? I ask because a google search tends to bring up Sabres of all variants and not specifically an A.
