All those "a little more done"s add up, ensuring a great end. Such detail I suppose only gets apperciated if you have been there yourself. I like it a lot Allan!

Another good one, Allan (@kalamazoo). The interior is coming along nicely. The HH-3 Jolly Green was the big rescue helo when I first started flying and has always been one of my favorites. I am also looking forward to this build, so sign me up.

Thanks George, I have an old Revell kit to do a HH 3, some time !

Looking great, my friend @kalamazoo! Nice addition from the Revell kit!

You made good use of the Revell kit, Allan @kalamazoo

I know the slow progress theme very well myself. After all the glue has to set and the filler needs to be dry. . . .
