I can't remember who it was, but yes, there was someone that converted a BBI F-16 into the 2-seat version. Perhaps another member will be able to find the thread!

I always thought of this for the F-18 and that new one that come out would look amazing if someone were to turn it into a growler...

Greetings
The conversion would not work for the F-18. The newer F-18E Super Hornet and F-18 Growler though they look like the legacy F-18...are not the same airplane. The Super Hornet is actually quite a bit bigger, has different intakes as well as some other features. The conversion could possibly be made for a legacy two-seat F-18 (they did make them) but the Super Hornet and new Growler are a similar looking but different aircraft entirely

I know the facts on the hornet and the superhornet I've been around them my who life I just think the design of the new Hornet would look nice to be a growler witch of course you would have to Change parts such as the intakes and such...

Strange ! even the pictures of KROLL ?
maybe you miss something in your computer and must charge a programm ? try to ask in the forum : Website/Forum Threads to have some help (i am not very good with troubleshooting computer issues)
Maybe someone can help him ?
The picture are super great because KROLL has done an incredible job with both F-16 & F-18 two seaters !

Kroll those Falcons are awesome not only is the 2 seater just about seamless but the paint jobs are spectacular. When you do get a chance finish the Hornet I for one will look forward to images. As it is I see a lot of work invested and an impressive result. Hope your little girl recovers quickly and fully. Thanks for taking the time to share your work.

I'm not sure what happened but the pictures got all jumbled up. On my home computer they were correct. I'm on the road now looking at them through my iPad and they're all messed up. Huh. Well I'll fix them when I get home.
Thanks for the kind words guys.
