1/72 Revell, I modified a few things, finished in MM, Humbrol and Tamiya enamels, altered to suit the Fujimi kit decals with Future over all.

Looks like a staff transport to me. The ones I’ve seen were usually shiny, like this one. Some enlisted guys probably polishing away on it when it wasn’t flying. Makes a nice contrast with the “working” aircraft.
First of these I’ve seen Allan, and a nice one.
Quite a world of whirlybirds you have there!
Meant to tell you, that Swidlak Polish one? I know a guy who did a parachute drop from one. He was visiting, I suspect zlotys changed hands. He showed me the pictures. I was jealous.

Another stunning addition to the fleet of your “chopper squadron”, Allan. Wouldn’t mind seeing your display area(s) with all of ’em ‘in review’.

Thanks Craig, I’ll see what I can do.
