Man, time sure does fly ! I'm in my third house since I started this thing. But how cool would it be, on June 11th, 2024, 20 years to the day, that I finish this and present it ?

That's looking veeeeeeery good, and veeeeeeeeery large in 1:1 scale too!  :o
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! :)

I'm modifying a pair of Sea Stallions into minesweepers. Need to clear a road once we get into shallow water for ops.

Top to bottom : Trumpeter, Airfix and WEM. The latter two are almost identical in size, but the Trumpeter one is huge ! Not sure which is correct.

Hell this would be a monster of a machine and I love it 😀
I've stood beside a LVPT7..earlier version of the AAVP7 and they ain't small ..im 6'2 and that towered over me .
One of my fav choppers is the Ch-54 so I'm chuffed about that too 😀 😄 😊
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Hi guys. After discussing my jump start with the mods, I will suspend work on these two builds for 1 month, picking them up again in January. I've already waited 20 years so a month should be gravy ! Cheers
