a bud sent me one. any cool paint schemes, caveats, must haves? it will be my first completed rotary winger. the camo scheme on the back of the box looks cool, but any unusuals would be fun. is it a rare kit? a ma. discount place has them for $1.99.
Haven't seen one of those in years. If you can get hold of another one, a display showing the tactical and non-tactical colour schemes would look really good. The non-tactical scheme was light aircraft grey (or maybe natural metal) with a white fuselage top and a blue cheat-line. Be aware that there were variations during the production run. Some aircraft had vertical fins at the tips of the tailplane.
i'm trying to get a couple of more andthat's a great idea. thanks.
I think it's a reproduction of a pre-production airframe. Somewhere in my files there's a magazine with a conversion article which produces a service machine. I'll try looking for it tonight.

This rings a bell. Wasn't it the Bristol 192?

I once went out with a chick who had 2 large bristols!
Yes, and that's partly why I briefly had trouble finding the article. I kept looking under 'B'. The article's title is "Westland Belvedere". It's in SAM, Vol.5, No.1, Oct. 1982 and is 7 pages long including drawings.

Anything less wouldn't have looked balanced. ;)
