RWA: Dutch Navy (i)UH-1

[Spey_Phantom]

REAL WORLD ALERT!!

its been a verry, verry long time since i made a real-world kit, so please forgive me 

after buying the 1/72 Italeri AB204 kit, i had no idea what to do with it, so i decided not to whiff it.
instead i have an older AB204 (same kit) that will be repainted into a what-if 

the Dutch Navy did fly 7 AB-204B's (Italian license build UH-1F's)for SAR operations back in the 60's, until all the Westland Wasps and Huey's were replaced with the lynx at the end of the 1970's. they were designated (I)UH-1's (with the I standing  for Italian)

this is what she will look like when she's done.



and here's pictures of the progres made in the last 2 days, the remainder of the decals will go straight to the what-if machine

Nice Nils!  I didn't know that the Dutch flew the 204.  Can't wait to see this pan out!
