Having been lucky enough to see the Norwegian AW101s training in Cornwall during the last 3 weeks I was delighted to see the contents of the impending Xtradecal set https://www.hannants.co.uk/product/X72279 Here are a few of the Helicopters featured in the sheet that I've been able to catch in Cornwall in recent years: ZZ102 ZZ101 ZR342 Xtradecal have ZR337 as the UK serial for the Nigerian, but only ZR344 and ZR345 wore these colours. ZR344 (NAF280) ZR345 (NAF281) ZR343

It was a very sad day at AugustaWiffliand when the prototype AW191 destroyed itself in a blur of blades but the engineers decided to use some of the wreckage for the prototype AW161 Peregrine AEW. The only problem was that very little survived the accident, but with the Navy chasing them for an update on the conversion programme any changes needed to use as many standard parts as possible.

AugustaWestand AW101 Skyfall 1:72 Italeri The AugustaWestand AW101 is a medium lift helicopter developed in a joint venture between Westland Helicopters and Augusta, commonly know as the Merlin. Originally it was called the EH101 as EH industries was the name of the joint venture company. EH was dropped when Westlands and Augusta merged in 2007. Like many modern aircraft programmes the gestation for the Merlin has been long, and at some times difficult. As far back as 1977 the UK issued a requirement to replace their ASW Sea Kings which were deemed to be inadequate against the advances
