Looking for...

1/125th Huey, Kiowa/Jetranger, or MD-500/OH-6 Cayuse, or suitable NATO equivalent helo

And suggestions on scratchbuilding same scale Harpoon and Tomahawk box launchers, and a new radar mast and sonar dome for the Lindberg Blue Devil DD
(Yep, already starting the thread drift)

The Lindberg Blue Devil!? Is that still available?

I spent many hours in the swimming pool at the Seymour Halls in London at the ME Exhibition retrieving an R/C converted Blue Devil from the depths. The deck doesn't seal very well, indeed it doesn't seal at ALL, and every time we did a 'destroyer turn' with the darn thing the stern went underwater, the ship flooded and down she went!

I found one a few years ago tucked in the back of a hobby shop down in Gulfport MS.  Snagged it for a decent price, and I have plans to seal the hull/deck interface very well so that it *doesn't* turn into a submarine.

EXCELLENT move!

There are several catch ponds around where I live, and I highly doubt the leasing office would appreciate me going in with snorkeling gear.  I was also thinking about spray foam about midships to act as emergency flotation, in the event it *does* turn turtle.
