You LUCKY DOG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I totally agree, I could not put the book down, I communicate with Hank, and he is a great guy, and also, not being a Facebook, guy myself, again, I have to agree...... some cool stuff there I will say....

https://awolfsmoon.com This book, is EXCELLENT, and until we get our new 1/48 scale Italeri B 206, it is well, worth a read in the mean time, lots of Bell 47 flying in British Columbia, and 206 stuff as well.... when I got it, I was only going to read a page or two, but I couldn't put it down... read it in a couple days..... Jeff

Not sure if this is the right place, to put this out there, but I will give it a try, if not, please feel free to delete, I'm NOT a Facebook guy, but a good friend of mine sent me this link, and as some of us are Bell 206 lovers, I thought this may be of some interest to those who don't know about it... https://www.facebook.com/groups/1444144865828784 If the link doesn't work google Bell 206 Jet Ranger / Long Ranger Enthusiast public group some good stuff on it.... but as I say I'm not a Facebook guy.... Jeff

Georgia , isn't it?

Yessir, it was GRRRREAT !

To all, who are interested..... not long ago, I placed an order or request to Thomas at Speedway decals, that was suggested on this thread..... Thomas answered me back almost immediately, and mentioned he was out of town , but would fulfill my request as soon as he got home..... and he did, I got the decals today in the mail, and they are EXCELLENT ! Also many thanks to Thomas for his great communication, and his excellent service, I'm sure I will order more from him in the future, just thought I would let anyone interested that this was an EXCELLENT transaction.... thanks Thomas! Jeff

I would LOVE to see a pic, I'm a Corvette guy so I am into cool rides...

that's sad.................. I remember the Bearcats...... vaguely.... you own the replica car?????

Maybe we need to get a 'petition' going?? ;-))

I often wonder if 'we' could lobby someone to record or produce the rest of the series of some of these classics...... obviously there is an interest out there...... I know it is about profit and business models etc, but wouldn't that be cool??

Yeah, that's the one I have..... not perfect by today's standards, but it works well, and is nostalgic..... I still enjoy them....

Thanks John, 12 O'Clock High isn't available as yet I don't believe and yeah Whirlybirds is one season only so far................ why can't they make GOOD tv like these old shows again, instead of the crapola they have out today? ;-))

And I will be 62 on March 5 and I remember it too, a VERY exciting series, and I did manage to get Season 1 on DVD from Amazon.... I only wish they would do the rest of them , along with the tv series Sky King and 12 O'Clock High............ the BEST old school tv ever.....

awesome !

Contact made, order placed, and a few sets of all 3 scales, will soon be on their way to my model room.................. THANKS for the heads up and the effort to pass on this great information............ this is going to be very cool...

That sounds very encouraging.................so would these be considered his 'regular' line as he already has the art work done? Technically it wouldn't be 'custom work', as the designs are not in need of redoing? hhhmmm.... just wondering .....

He just sent me a note and I have placed an order, ............ I ordered a couple extra sheets too, just in case I screw one up and / or I want to do another one down the road when they won't be available, then I will still have what I need............ trying to think ahead and be proactive................... then I won't have to beg anyone here for a spare set..... see I AM thinking ahead !!🤓

Just sent an email request............... I hope to hear from him........... thanks again !

Thanks john, I will get on this right away.... I appreciate your quick response..... Cheers Jeff

How many sets did you have to order and can you tell me how much he charged, I would be VERY interested in a couple sets as well... Jeff

Well, I didn't ask, but I am sure and assuming it is the Revell Skycrane you are thinking of..... the post does say 1/72 scale..... so I am 'assuming'...... and there again it would be great for a new Sky Crane.... we are due , I'd say....

I have always wondered, if I was the ONLY one interested in this machine ( I guess not wahoo!!) as most of the model guys all want the big military iron. And as it is one of if not the highest manufactured helicopter in real life, how does it go without love in the model world? I do hope that IF there ever is a good one, it is a true 206 and not a Kiowa that has to be modified as there are some stark differences................ I am still hopeful.... and I am feeling better there are you guys out there that are interested in this as well..... kind of a warm and fuzzy feeling...🤗
