The folks at Meteor Productions continue to turn out great aftermarket decals with some of the best instructions/color profiles on the market. This set covers all of the paint schemes used by the three Bell X-1 research aircraft.

Markings are provided for eight schemes:

  • X-1 6062 prior to first Mach flight (orange)
  • X-1 6062 for Yeager's Mach 1 flight (orange)
  • X-1 6062 used for 'Jet Pilot' movie (orange and white)
  • X-1 6063 (orange)
  • X-1 6063 (white w/NACA shield)
  • X-1 6063 (white w/NACA wings)
  • X-1 6064

Highly recommended!

My sincere thanks to Meteor Productions for this review sample!
