Hello Celliers, Job well done. What I noticed directly, was the realistic (material) look of the ejection seat. Furthermore the immaculate canopy. Regards, Orion.

Orion started following Sikorsky UH-34J Netherlands Navy / Trumpeter 1/48 and Fairey Gannet

Hello Ratch Your Gannet looks fantastic. My compliments for showing this Gannet 1/48 scale so quick on Britmodeller. I did read the article, regarding the actual build in the Airfix magazine. According to the writer, Mr. Richard Spreckley; "Absolute joy and snugly fit". So, it will be interesting to see, what ratch thought about it. In The Netherlands it is on the market since last Thursday 19th of December. Regards and best wishes and to all Modellers around the globe. Orion.

Sikorsky UH-34J Netherlands Navy / Trumpeter 1/48
Orion replied to Rob K.'s topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Hello Rob, I actually have flown in one of the last Dutch UH-34 helicopters in 1971. Noisy, shaky, stinking (fuel/oil) rattling. And looking at the constant input on the pedals by the pilot. No seats, but seated on the floor. With seven other marines and equipment beside me. The UH-34 had a short career by the Dutch Navy. (1961/1972) This model brings back memories from a long time ago. The model is finished to perfection. My highest compliments. Orion. -
DYNAVECTOR GANNET photos updated & wheel chocs
Orion replied to CJP's topic in Ready for Inspection - Aircraft
Hello CJP, As mentioned above, a craftsman concerning Vacuform models. The end result is stunning. Also the AlizΓ© looks fantastic. Both models can cause alot of problems. But you solved them all. As note I would like to mention, that both types can be preserved in flying condition. Highest Regards, Orion. -
Interesting subject. Excellent construction. It shows clearly how the battlefield is changing in a very rapid speed. The damage that these UAV's can accomplish is awesome. And as we can notice, the modelwordl is keeping up it's pace in this changing world. Regards, The Netherlands.
