    OK how about Ka 52/RBS70
    Strength isn't about what you can do, rather it's about overcoming what you thought you couldn't do.

      Wouldn't bother you haven't finished this one yet plenty of time to have a change of mind and if you purchase too soon that happens how do you think we all started our stashes.

          Already committed Dave. Ordered and it's winging its way as I type from Germany. As for stash's - never happen. I'm very comfortable with a short list of one.

                :thumb2: Yup, bang on Dave. KA 27. Big fan, (no pun intended), of the co-axial rotors. Used to get them buzzing the ship when in the Med. Surprised they were as big as they were.

                    That's when the plug comes out and it flies around the room knocking the ornaments of the shelves and upsets the ducks flying up the wall, then she has to stop the dog chasing it down the street....

                        Back in the late 1960's it was one of those long hot summer evenings, love life was in the doldrums, so invested in one of these new 'toys'... Had to slip into the side entrance of the Surgical Supply shop with the blacked out windows, and there I met with the owner who handed over the box and a bottle of perfumed rubbing oil....
                        So there I was sitting in my string vest and baggy 'Y' fronts, patio doors wide open, fan going to move that hot air around the room... And proceeded to unpack the new toy. Spent 20 minutes with my head up its orifice, breathing in talcum powder and blowing like blazes, then with a pop! and a rustle! I had a full blown toy bobbing and bouncing in the room and down her front was a dog lead and around her neck was a collar.... Now the owner had said that I should open the bottle of scented rubbing oil and rub it all over for a smoother and better interaction, which I did, it was going everywhere all over the toy, all over me when disaster struck.... the plug came out and with a phraaaat around the room and out the patio doors it went..... I dashed down the stairs and out the front door to try to capture it, but as my hands were covered in perfumed rubbing oil I could get no grip and after chasing the toy down the road I realised i would never catch it and I had better get back in before someone saw me in my string vest and baggy 'Y' fronts......
                        But the story does not end there, for three weeks the police were trying to trace the relatives of the wrinkled old lady that had hung herself from a lamp post with a dog lead......

                            Got a Zvezda 1/72 Helix 'B' in the stash - that's been reboxed by Italeri & Revell - nice looking model in the box, but some very delicate undercarriage & stores pylons....................
