Replacement parts look good...you must have an impressive rotary wing display - you must let us see them all one of these days.

Thanks Craig, I'll do a group shot of all of them, or shots.

Very neat work again, Allan, on what must be a tiny model, and, another great example of international modelling on iModeler, how many nationalities are involved here?
Allan J Withers said on February 26, 2017
Thanks George, only two, France and England.

Allan, nice colorful build, neat little helicopter. You replaced the fenestron? Egad! In that scale, too. Intricate work. Good on ya!
BTW, the latest version of Future is apparently now called Pledge in a lot of places.

Thank you Bernard, it was easier to make a new one than clean up the kit part.

Great work on the "refit" of the tail rotor, and a nice looking build all the way around.
