If not, might be a nice idea for a resin set. I would love to have both options in the kit, but if given only 1 choice, I'd say with the padding. You can always sand off the padding and add panel detail, but making padding sucks. Just my 2 cents. Ray Quote Link to post Share on other sites
salvador001 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Making the roof without the soundproofing is not too difficult. I have made 2 of them with the italeri 1/48 huey. It can be done with 0.10 evergreen plain sheets. 0.10 for 1/48, and 0.15 for 1/35. Rod. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rod, send me the pics and the artwork and we'll see what I can do. No promises but we'll see. Many Dustoff aircraft did not have the litter carriers in the field but just put the wounded on the floor and seats. I'm trying to include the Dustoff markings. I have selected three marking options to present to KH. One is Novosel, one is a white elephant and one is just a typical medevac. As for a Medevac interior, that will have to wait for a separate boxing, maybe the later UH-1H Post-Vietnam where it was more prevalent. Floyd I second the Novosel option!

Rod. I'll ask them to include them but if they don't I will. I can only make suggestions. Floyd Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I never left in a dust off that had litters (never saw one as well). The idea was to get him inside, and get outta dodge. gary On 11/29/2016 at 9:56 AM, Floyd S.

Neo Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Id love to do somethin similar to air cavalery in the movie we where soldiers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Floyd - it's probably too late but if you can find the references, it might be nice to include markings for one of those Vietnam-era US Army Hueys that had some black camouflage added. I don't remember the details, just recall that one of the old Squadron books had a color profile of one. Would be a nice break from a bunch of overall OD Hueys.

Floyd S. Werner, Jr. Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) The one similar to the movie is in the works. I may eventually do the movie one as a set with surfboards and all. As for the black camouflaged one, one will be on the Werner's Wings sheet as it lacks most markings/stencils. I think you'll like what I picked out for Kitty Hawk and Werner's Wings. Looks like the Werner's Wings will be about 20 aircraft. Floyd Edited December 12, 2016 by Floyd S.

CharlieUH-1H Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 On 12/1/2016 at 5:23 PM, rotorwash said: This term usually refers to the all white medevacs that flew in Vietnam in 72. Apparently some general got the bright idea that medevacs were being fired upon because they weren't clearly marked as non-combatant aircraft. As you can imagine, the white birds made very inviting targets. Below is UH-1H 68-16489 with the 247th Med Detachment, one of the white Vietnam Hueys. Since her records don't extend beyond Vietnam, I assume she was lost in country. Photo from US Army Transportation Museum archives. Sir I sent you a email on here.
