My intended project is an Urban Aerial Assault Vehicle, MV-29.  It will be based on the Bell Textron/Urban Aeronautics XHawk vehicle currently being developed.  See http://www.urbanaero.com/whatsnew.htm

I expect that this will be pretty much a scratch build project as I haven't seen anything in 1/72 scale that offers a really good starting point.

We don't just embrace insanity here.  We feel it up, french kiss it and then buy it a drink.

Pretty funky Ed, never heard of this before (thanks for the link).

You may be able to start with a Glencoe Air Jeep kit if you can find one.  It gives the right prop layout and might scale pretty close for a 72nd scale version without too much work.

Edit: Just saw Squadron has the Air Jeep on sale for $13.49.

Hey, it's an AV-10 from the Cyberpunk paper-and-pen RPG (circa 1993)!

Man, I'm an old. And nerdy.

Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part...
