Tricky question: have you got the H145 build planned already?
Gertjan
Gertjan, I am trying not to get too interested, although I did go down the other day and take some detail photo's....I need to focus.....

Good to hear you are back working on your 117. We are all keen to see it progress.
LD.
Thanks very much, it's nice to know this build was missed! That in itself spurs me on
Cheers Anthony

Holy thread revival! Glad to see you back!
Thanks buddy!
I am on-line at the moment looking at smaller 'home use' Vac forming machines for the clear parts
Am actually keen to crack on,

Uh Oh........
They just took delivery of their new H-145!! (photo courtesy of the Canterbury West Coast Air Rescue Trust Facebook page)
So I went and brought one of these...
Hmmm, I think I might have gotten the drive finally to work on this Bk-117 again!
-
Great work John!
So good to see the BK getting the attention she deserves!
Cheers Anthony

Anthony,
I'm really close by Pete, like maybe 20 min top.
Joel
Awesome!

Lovely build there Peter!
Just keeping the lines of communication open as I am still planning on visiting you next year when I stay on Long Is with my family. And Joel too if he is nearby.
I REALLY will miss you over at LSP, but nice to keep in touch here
BTW, that Tomcat really does look awesome mate!

LOL, I guess I am 'inventive' each time a parcel arrives LOL
Here are the skids, I should tape some of this stuff together to the Revell kit and see how it looks
-
I have just received some Printed 'high skids' from Heli-Scale which they upscaled for me from 35th. Really nice detail and should hold the weight of the kit no problem.
I will post some pics later when I have time for those interested
Cheers
Anthony

Hi, I believe so. Ian wasn't prepared to order any more until it, and other items were corrected. I was copied in on the emails between the 2 parties and both parties were happy. Sure looks like it will be strong enough to support the blades from what I can see.

I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure the guy who converted the Panda 212 works on 412's and used the Bell-Textron lofts as a basis for the set. I know the rotorhead, swashplate and fairing needed tweaks before going back on sale.
-
Perfect mate!! And pleased I could help on such a beautiful build!!
-
Surprisingly the BK gets work done on her at regular intervals. With work ramping up in the past few years to get my old Auster T.7 rebuild moving along to fly (its an extensive ground up rebuild), the modelling had taken a back seat. I desperately want to finish her off. I wont start the Bell 412 until I get that BK done!
Just not enough time.....

is that the one I sent u?
Yes mate, it actually is!!!! Sorry for the brain malfunction
-
I am going to use the old Revell 1/32 Huey (UH-1D) kit as a basis
-
Yes mate it is, and larger than it looks in the photo's.
I have clipped off the doghouse type upper fairing and taped it to the kit....wow what a transformation, even with that on it. And big! The nose is being worked on, I just got to sort out the main engine cowl....

Hmmmm.....

Got some wiring done in the pilots footwell area. I really want to close this fuse up! Although I am getting tugged from other kits on my SOD LOL
