AN Cheers John lets hope so as i could not belive it to find another new kit an one what would take a motor straight away as to fit the one i did i was shattered with all the fileing an sanding down to get it to fit but i was afraid in case i took off too much then id be back to rebuilding it an pleased you like the slideing door yes ive done this in all my choppers that fit on the ships as im gonna fit a weak white led in the cabin an where the the main door is an with crew figures inside the chopper should look good hopefully hope you an christine are both well

Chris it's your model, so however you want to make it, or alter it, is your decision, and more power to you. Purists be buggered :smiling:

It's certainly going well - don't worry about having a spare kit, they're always useful!
Can't wait to pop up and see her on the pond!

HI Gerry well ive not really got a spare kit as i keep fogetting she has four seaking on her an they will be a job to fit on as the seaking is fairly big even in 1.72 scale well Gerry its comin ABOUT another year an a half an she should be done barring anything unforseen as she's gettin heavy now so got to watch my back pain dont start off an yes be nice to meet you
