71chally Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 (edited) Certainly some S51 variants had the three rear seats and SAR winch. Are there any plans for add-ons, such as the external stretcher cases, or even the bonkers side bulges for three stretchers of the H-5H?

Trenton guy Posted December 31, 2017 Share Posted December 31, 2017 What a shame this kit is 1/48. Strictly personal point of view, been hoping for a 1/72 version since I decided that nothing could be done with the Mach kit due to the irredeemable canopies.

Whirlybirds over the years have added to it and significantly improved it, not that it was a bad kit in the first place, it’s an accurate and nice Dragonfly. However, the Mach 2 kit is neither a S-51 or a Dragonfly. Thomo. Edited January 2, 2018 by The Tomohawk Kid 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Tomohawk Kid Posted January 2, 2018 Share Posted January 2, 2018 Here is an image of the Whirlybirds 1/72 S-51 (taken from thier latest catalogue), it was due the November gone, but I guess like most cottage industry kits has slipped a bit.
