Thanks Mike. Let me know
Welp, that makes two of us that need instructions:(
This is all thatās in the box, the parts and an inventory sheet. No instructionsĀ
Iāll reach out to Floyd and see if he can email me a set, Iāll forward them to you. Sorry for that Tom
-
I believe so. I never took anything out of the box since I received it like 10Ā years ago so it should be in there. I should be able to scan and email them by tonight š

Xtreme Modelers Studio spammed a bunch of pics of a G conversion setĀ on the 1/48 Hobby Boss CH-47AĀ thread a while ago but have since gone silent.
I hit them up on their Facebook page with no reply soā¦ā¦.no idea if itās still planned.

Iāve got this kit, planning on building it as an Army UH-60L. Ā If those parts are specific to the Navy variant and arenāt needed for the Lima, theyāre all yours. Ā Ā
Thanks 11Bee, I meant to include a pic of the dispenser with the original post but got sidetracked. As far as Iām aware the buckets were only on Navy Sierras and Romeos. Itās possible that Army Mikes have them now but not entirely sure.Ā
Hereās an image of the dispenser fairing. -
Iām building the 1/35 Academy boxing MH-60S for a co-workers daughter who flies in the Navy. Sheās out on cruise right now and I have until Thanksgiving or so to finish.
Iām missing the flare/chaff bucket housings that come in the Kittyhawk kit. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to part with them andĀ Iāll pay for them and shipping.
I would ask over on the classifieds section but figured Iād get more traction over here. Thanks in advanceĀ

Yes, I will announce the options and post drafts sometime in August.
Great, thank you sir!

Kursad, I know youāve been busy launching our other highly anticipated subjectsĀ like the KC-135A/E and B-47 sheets but how is the the SAC B-52 part 2 sheet progressing?
Again, no pressure just curious.
Thanks in advanceĀ

Just a quick question.Ā Did only the FB-111A (& F-111G by extenstion) have the RAM panels inside the intakes?Ā Or did the other Triple Plow II equipped aircraft (F-111D/E/F) also carry them?Ā What about the EF-111A Spark Vark?
Ā
Besides, I couldn't resist another peek at Mike's beautiful Dark 'Vark.Ā Really nice work.Ā I am jealous.
K/r, Dutch
Thatās very kind of you Dutch, but Iāve seen your work and thereās no reason for you to be jealous! Iāve learned a thing or two from you as a matter of fact.
Regarding your question, Iāve only seen TPII inlets with the Ram panels. I havenāt seen, or I canāt find any TPI intakes with Ram. Thatās obviously not saying they werenāt modād later though.
Maybe Mr. Vark could chime in here and give us a definitive answer.

Hooker, with Kursad about to release the older red/blue diagonal stripe KC-135A decals, you're in like Flynn!Ā I hope he also does the ANG/AFRES KC-135E sheet soon. K/r, Dutch
Thanks Dutch!
Over the years Iāve built the A using the old Three Guys sheet, a 157thĀ E model using custom printed decals and finally an 157th R using Kursads decals.
His new -135 sheet should help me complete my Pease collection and let me move on to the SIOP and Dark Vark FBās............... which happen to need new decals of theyāre own (wink-wink Kursadš)

Sorry I canāt help with parts but thereās a left wing assembly available on EBay.Ā
Iāve purchased single spues this way previously. -

Um, yep your right and I'm wrong. I'll just crawl back into my UH-60 corner and eat my big ole "shut the heck up" sammich!!!

Iām with youĀ Tim, I didnāt see it at first either.
You got any of that sandwich left?š¤·āāļø

Thereās nothing in there. Itās a hold over from the A through Cās which had the AFT transmission oil coolers mounted flat to the deck.
TheyĀ changed the layout of the screens and the method of access from earlier models but as far as the D and F models, itās empty. -

I hadnāt but now I have! Looks good! Sorry I couldnāt help sooner š

Very niceš

I guess, with this being a āwhat ifā build, you could go in either direction. You could copy an actual in theater customer such as the Brits and model it after HC mk6 or possibly a Japanese CH-47JA with enlarged fuel tanks and radar nose.
Iām not real familiar on the German requirements but Iām sure you could research those and add the cabin door hoist and various antennas if needed.
The 1/72 MH-47E kit should give you everything you needĀ except the regular non-radar nose.

Great, thanks!

Back in the 80ās and 90ās, howĀ did the crew secure their Air-60ās in the window when not in use.Ā
For example, we Hookers would bungee cord ours in the forward or aft directionĀ Ā when mounted, to prevent them from blowing around.Just curious how you Hawk guys securedĀ yours.
Thanks in advanceĀ -
Found, thanks Gino!

I got an answer for you Don. This is a quote from ex-Bone avionics guy.
Ā
āWe think the antenna is part of the block 16 Ā upgrades that replace the APQ 164 forward looking radar with SABR-GS which is just a much more capable synthetic aperture radar and integrates with the mapping and sensor operation. Just makes it more capable as far as situational awareness in the cockpit.ā
Ā
He also mentioned the black is a RAM coating associated with the SABR-GS.
All this is mentioned in the following article.
