General Information

The “Kit” set is a fresh approach to Hollywood’s needs. This set was designed to meet today’s challenges where versatility, cost and trans-portability are key to whether the set stays in the script or not. Our solution to the problem is the “Kit” airline cabin set. Its rental cost is at least 40% less than our “Rolling” sets on a weekly rental, and due to its ingenious design, this set will save your production up to 60% in transportation costs. It was designed to fit into your budget while giving the Director more flexibility and greater camera access.

More versatile than the “Rolling” set, the “Kit” set can wild out portions of the cabin that were not possible before (see Capital One commercial). Wall panels, overhead bins and ceilings can be removed with minimal preparation.

“Kit” cabin come in 7′-long sections. Cabin width comes as either a “One-side” cabin set, or a one aisle “Narrow body” set.  With two aisles we can provide a “Wide body” (7 across coach class seats), or a “Extra Wide body” (8 or 9 across Coach class seats) set. Each set comes with a complement of Seats, bulkhead walls and curtain doorways, and upon request, our choice of Set-appropriate Set Dressing.

“Kit” sets are fully practical airline cabin interiors that come disassembled. Each “Kit” consists of cabin walls, passenger-activated overhead bins, Flight Attendant call button, incandescent reading lights and window shades.  Illuminated fasten seat belt, no smoking signs, and oxygen masks drop are controlled off-set. Dimmable (range: 30% to 70%) MacTech Tungsten LED tubes are used along walls, ceilings and (if set up as a two-aisle set) under the center overhead bins. Multiple “Kit” units are available, allowing you to select the width and length of set that will work best for you.

Aero Mock-Ups supports the largest inventory of studio-ready airline interior equipment. You can create your own Service Areas from our inventory of Cockpits, practical Galley Units, modified Lavatory Cubicles, Closets, functional Doors, illuminated LED Floor Track Lighting, and Wardrobe. Service areas can be placed in the front, middle or end of any width “Kit” set.

These are supervised sets that include an Aero Mock-Ups Technical Supervisor.
