CH-118 Iroquois (Huey) rescue.


Recommended Posts

Well, seeing as I am one of the moderators I had better build a couple. This is a 1/32 Huey gun ship which comes with (mostly not bad) Canadian decals. I think I will use after market numbers to portray one of these old birds that I played with back in the 80s.

Might keep it simple with modifactions. Perhaps make a couple stretchers for the back, but that will be about it.

I didn't know the Huey's had clothes dryers in them...LOL! I like the Canadian SAR yellow. It will really make this kit pop.  Nice start... good luck with the dryer.

 

Regards.

Dryer needs parts so , back to the model.........Forgot how simple these models are. The floor fit is not great but its being built closed. No problem.

Love that color! Whenever I built 32 coupes I always preferred canary yellow.

I think I built this in the 70s as a Vietnam gunship, that quilted interior

looks real familiar.Love your engine detail! Looking like a most excellent

How long (aprox) is the main rotor on the kit? I'm just trying to figure total size. Looks good also. :clap2:

About 46cm. Takes up a bit of room.
