2019 Flying Cloud Power Inlet

I have a 2019 Flying Cloud 27 on order and will be picking it up in a couple of weeks. It is a 50 amp unit. Will it have the Marinco power inlet, or another type? I have pigtails and adaptors for using a 30 amp cord for my current 50 amp trailer, but will need to get something else if it is not the Marinco inlet. I do not like to use a 50 amp cord if it is not needed for both ACs. If my current adaptor will not work any info on availability of adaptors will be appreciated.

Let me ask this again. Does the 2019 Flying Cloud 50amp use a Marinco twist on power cord?

My new 2018 International Serenity (50 amp ) has the Marinco plug. Yours likely will, too. The 50 amp cable is heavy, but well worth it.

The marine industry is moving to the Smartplug inlet and the RV industry is lagging behind but it's my understanding Airstream will install Smartplug on request. Have not confirmed that but certainly worth asking. 20X more surface area contact area over the L5 type connector and virtually eliminates risk of fire.

My 2019 27' FC has the Marinco twist on 50 amp power cord.
