Yes please! A brand new Airfix kit and Ronan is building it! What's not to like? 😄 Looking forward to it! And above all, have fun Ronan! 👍🏼

I knew it's gonna happen one day 😄 Will follow of course (just to say afterwards I'm demotivated to build mine) 😄

Welcome,
I will try to do something convincing with this beautiful model.
Our friends at Britmodeller find this model has a major flaw that makes it look awful: the fold behind the cockpit is too far forward in the helicopter. While this is somewhat true, I think this flaw is minor; in any case, it's not something that will stop me from building it. I don't think a perfect model exists, so I find this kit truly magnificent.

Status says "in progres" we are waiting for the pics Ronan. 🙂

Ronan Author
Yes Piotr, i will post pix as soon as possible.
For now, I can say that the main wheels are too narrow: 3.2 mm instead of 4 mm for the Italeri model wheels or the Reskit wheels. Visually, it's not very attractive; they need to be changed or a piece of plastic inserted between the two parts.

Oh, a new project. Nice indeed.
