Lovely build and a really sweet colour scheme too. Sure as hell beats the orthodox grey/white scheme by a mile or so...

It was the orthodox scheme for our Wessex, Scout, Kiowa & Iroquois helo's.

Beauty !

With a long enough run, I bet it could get airborne without the rotors spinning !

Great work, well done.

I'm not sure about taking-off but it was intended that it could land like that if need be, but that would have been at lower AuWs of course.

Great looking scheme and finish......
