Thanks Ratch.

This is a really nice kit.

Fit of parts is good and the detail is nice.

The interior is nicely detailled, I might model this with one of the doors open.

Some more interior pics

Cheers

Dave

It's certainly a nice one when built. I won't spoil your fun or steal your thunder, but you might find the attached small image gives something to look forward to.

Paula and Dan, I am currently sat with my wife looking at the French cottages for a holiday - not quite so far south as you though. Still, who knows where we will end up. Keep up the good work.

Came out really well. It's rather pleasing to the eye, as helicopters go.

Thanks for your comments guys.

Had a nightmare with the canopy fit, cut it off and refitted a couple of times. Still not happy but I though sid it and carried on. In the end it didn't look as bad as I thought.

Decals went on really well which surprised me, they looked a bit iffy.

Apart from the canopy I really enjoyed this one.

Cheers

Dave
