1/48 F-14A Cockpit

I thought Black Box made a F-14A cockpit set? Every where I have looked all suppliers only offer F-14B and F-14D cockpit sets in BB or the new Avionix boxing.

There are after market cockpits for the A. Just have not seen any in a while. Air support had a couple, I bought and installed them a couple years ago.

Aires has a tomcat "A" pit the laat time I looked on their website.

Opinions: BB/Avionix F-14A or Aires F-14A cockpit set, which is better? Does one fit better than the other or have more detail than the other?

If you can get it, get the Aires set. Gordon at Sprue Bros might just be able to hook you up.

Hi, Aires does make a great cockpit tube for the A version. I own this pit and not the BB/Avionix so I can't say anything concerning the best one, but if you takes a look at this topic:

you can see the differences between the seats (A & B have the same) so you can choose better which one is closer to your taste...
