I'm starting to get an itch to build a chopper...especially after following a GB for the Sea Knight over at BM. Got a Lynx, Sea King, & Seahawk chilling in the stash. Trying to stay focused...

 

[Plastik Smurff]

Unusual for ya to build a chopper

 

[Frank]

Smurff,
You could say that. LOLOLOLOLO
I have been known to build a chopper or two.
I currently have 15 helicopter models at the Iowa Avation Muesum in Greenfield Iowa.
They have been on display since 2015, it was to be a two year commitment.
I am in the process of rebuilding the diplay birds.
These two will fill the D,H.
I have already completed the HH-53, AH-1, OS-13.
Thanks for watching.

Thanks everyone.
When I used to fly around in the slicks, they didn't look this bad.
But in the heat of battle the wear and tear on them must have been much greater than in peace time.
