Nice twin-boom helicopter, with twin floats moreover :thumbsup:
Is this the Mach2 kit 1/72? (I have considered buying a copy 2 years ago then I forgot)

I salute your imagination sir  :bow:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

thanks !

yes it is the Mach2 kit, which I found for quite cheap

PR19_Kit

How does that kit build up Ericr?

I have one, but I've not really looked at it too deeply yet.
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

According to Ericr's result, this kit is perfect, unless Ericr is a magician ;)

well, I would say : as usual with Mach2  ;D
actually I think it is hard to make something very clean I guess,
but for my style of build (!), they are not too uneasy, the fit is quite reasonable ...
so when I find a cheap 2nd hand one I go for it

the Mariner shown previously is a Mach2

and they have very original subjects, so I contuinue to like them  ;)

with a convenient trunk on the side, for the fishing stuff, picnic, and beer

Good work,  but the F.O.D. would be a problem.

Wow! It seems this is the very first supersonic seaplane for tourism! :thumbsup: ;D
