Airfix 1/48 Sea King HU.5

February 17, 2025 · in Aviation · · 14 · 267

An excellent model by . The build is complex, but not complicated. There are plenty of details and much scratch work to add. I detailed the crew entry door and more. Instructions however, are missing some of the holes required to be drilled in the fuselage for a particular variant. The options to have open or folded rotors is not interchangeable for an out of the box model.
