- The .xml files above includes all the parts for the model and a stand (except for the printed parts).  Use the Pukin' Dogs XML to create the Jolly Rogers from the add-on pack and use the Tophatters XML to create the Black Aces. Use the Eagles XML to create the Eagles from scratch. Use the instructions below for the horizontal stabilizer improvement modification.

Rear stabilizer improvement instructions / mod
- This modification improves the stability of the rear stabilizer by moving the pin one stud to the rear and changing the stabilizer to accommodate that move. It's actually more accurate to the stabilizer pin location on the real jet and therefore a win-win.

Landing gear modification
- This modification changes four pieces on the rear landing gear to allow the plane to display more accurately off the stand. It uses 4x part 4273 in light gray (not lbg).

Landing gear door modification
- Already present on the Tophatters kit. This modification improves the strength of the landing gear door assembly.

- Use this XML to purchase the parts to upgrade your rear stabilizer and landing gear doors (Tophatters already has the landing gear door mod).  If you want to modify the landing gear you must also add 4x part 4273 in light gray which this .xml does not include.
