swimmer25k Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 I’m guessing that if I wanted to add aftermarket to this kit I would use parts made for Kinetic F-16s. Is that correct? Thanks, Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Can you be more specific about what kind of AM you are considering? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
swimmer25k Posted June 20, 2018 Author Share Posted June 20, 2018 Cockpit, exhaust, and maybe the speed brakes. Aires and Eduard market resin and brass of all types for the Kinetic kit. Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 Skunkworks XL kit cockpit and exhaust parts are Kinetic trees so those should work. Not sure about the speed brakes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Walker Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Didn't the XL have an early A cockpit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
habu2 Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Both XL #1 and XL #2 were built from FSD (pre-production) airframes. The cockpits probably had some special instrumentation and displays but would have been close to A/B production cockpits. They definitely did not have C/D or MLU style cockpits. Both XLs also had heavy-weight landing gear with bulged main gear doors. I don't know if the kit includes those parts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
