Hi all,

I'm trying to locate a 1:72 Westland Whirlwind (helicopter, not the WWii plane) to build as a SAR unit from RAF Valley for the comp. But can I find a kit? Can I oh fudge.

So I am appealling to you, my fellow FC's if you have one in your stash, or know of one.

Thanks in advance,

Steve

have a look at this

Thanks, but they are modifications and decals which I will need - but I need to find an airframe first. Thanks though!

Also looking, I could do with getting a Chickasaw S-55 and change the nose - probably doesn't help searching as I'm out the country and my computer doesn't find UK sites.

Ah well, I'm sure I will find one!

Do you mean one like this?



To get to this you need to get the 1/72 Italeri UH-19B and one of the conversion noses.



A bit of surgery



And you finally get something better than my attempt!
Arabest,
Geoff.

Perfect, I searched eBay yesterday - silly computer, or me, or both! Bids on, thanks DaveDubya!

All sorted now thanks - got that eBay kit and the Mk10 nose resin conversion - all set for Jan now :-)
