After all this protorypes of Kurt Tanks Focke Wulfs I've to smell some kerosin again. The Sabre is an all time favorite of me. After building three old Hasegawa Sabres I thought trying a Kinetic kit would be an easier job. I was completely wrong.
Kinetic is offering a F-86 F-30??? as a Sabre MK 6. This means heavy sanding and engraving is waiting for me.
First I will show the most urgent snags of the kit.
The picture on the box is missleading. This is defenitly no MK6!
This ugly rivets no one can see on the original ac. standing just some yards away is a real nuisace with chinese kits.
Standing very near this sabre I can't see the rivets at all.
A big mistake is that two rocker arm levers for the slats are missing on each wing.
