Boeing Vertol CH 47C Chinook, A15-007, 12 Sqn RAAF, Amberley Qld, 1975.
1/72 Italeri, built sometime before 2016, I modified the engine intakes, the cabin ceiling and antennae posts and in 2021 I narrowed the rotor blades.

I nearly always recognize your work before I see your name on the post Allen , always a pleasure to see such clean precise modeling. Nice colour scheme as well.
Cheers.
Thank you Neil, just finished editing this post.
Great work, Allan. I’m still amazed that thing flies.
Thanks John, quite well I think.
Another great looking Withers helo!
Thank you Robert.
Looking very good, Allan @kalamazoo
Rotor blades look much better this way.
Thank you John.
I like the way it looks with the blades narrowed. Good job.
Thank you John.
Excellent job, my friend @kalamazoo!
Thanks Spiros.
It definitely looks like a Chinook, Allan, it’s a shame they’re so noisy.
Thanks George, from inside or outside ?
Excellent work on a very nice Italeri kit. Enough details yet not a lot parts for a good sized helo. Love the finish and yes another Allan Withers quality helo. I love following your work. Thanks for sharing. I have so many helo's to build and yet have not started one this year, as I was promising my self to at least build one a year.
Thank you Chuck, you should do so.
Aussie Awesomeness 🦘
Thanks Celtic98.
Another lovely build from down under!
Thank you Greg.
Great looking CH 47C, Allan (@kalamazoo) - the Italeri kit looks very nice.
Nice work with the narrowed rotor blades - I'd be afraid that I'd end up with sabre-toothed blades 🙂
Thank you George, not a bad kit, blades cut and sanded smooth.
