No idea what you're going to do with that lot, and nor will you after the vodka  :drink: :blink:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

That's going to get ugly even if you don't drink the vodka......

S'okay though: ugly is good.... :thumbsup:

Your choice could be to create either a Helicopter compound machine, like a super Cheyenne or a fast transport using the helo body and the jet bits. It looks like either making one craft with plenty of parts options OR trying to create two machines with less options, or dipping into your other parts - boneyard.

I'm very interested in what you are going to do with them.

But...


I'm even more interested in what you'll do with what's left over!  ;D

How about something like   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sikorsky_S-72
I'm rattling something around in my brain using two blackhawks and an A-10.  I don't know just how the Sukhoi would fit in other than a different wing option.

Finlander.......yum yum!

Try putting the A-10 wings and tailplane on the helo and remove the rotor system.

Hmm, the container the vodka comes in would be a good base for something sci-fi, maybe anti missile satelite?

Like the S-72 option but not with a Super Jolly Green. 
I have the helicopter kit that took a fall and the main rotor got busted up.  I can either fix it or I was thinking maybe a short field transport aircraft?

Will be interesting to see what you come up with.

Loving the ideas chaps.....some are pretty close....to be fair there probably won't be much of the Sukhoi used....I do have a rough idea of what will happen and some even rougher sketches.....surgery will probably start early next week when on days off.....H

If I were you, I would:
- use the MiG as basis
- adapt on the MiG the jets of the A-10, on the back
- adapt on the MiG the fins of the A-10, as central support to hold the rotor of the helicopter (needing to rotate above the MiG fin)
Is this crazy? Yes, that is what vodka is made for... :lol:

EDIT: When I said MiG read Sukhoy, sorry (vodka effect?)
