Designed and built in the early 1960's, the Mil Mi-5 was designed as a medium lifter for the Russian Airforce and Aeroflot. The British Government claimed that the Russian spies stole plans of a British design are considered rubbish!
"Where is your evidence" said the Russian press, " the English built a Prototype 'only' from our design"!
First seen at the 1962 May Day parade, overflying 'Red Square'.

Model :Airfix Fairey Rotodyne
Decals :VEB Aeroflot 1/100sc.

Brilliant Glenn. Lovely looking Rotodynski you've built there.
If you love, love without reservation; If you fight, fight without fear - THAT is the way of the warrior

If you go into battle knowing you will die, then you will live. If you go into battle hoping to live, then you will die

Sales of Airfix kits plummeted in the 1980s, and GCSEs had to be made easier as a result - James May
