  1. Hi all and this is the second build I'm in with, Airfix's lovely SH-2F Seasprite.. Airfix SH-2F Seasprite Box art by Dermot Moriarty, on Flickr I've never built this kit but judging by the contents and ones I've seen made, it's a little cracker and one of Airfix's best (and underated) I think. Airfix SH-2F Seasprite contents by Dermot Moriarty, on Flickr If you're interested in their story, here's a short documentary about Kaman - I think Anton Flettner joined them after WW2 Cheers, Dermot
  2. Rodder's Seasprite build really set me to thinking about building one myself. First, however, I had to get my hands on one and given their rarity that just didn't seem likely unless I happened across one at Telford. But, quelle surprise, what should pop up on the Bay a few days after Rodder's first post but one self same Airfix Kaman Sh-2F Seasprite, kit #03041. "A sign, a sign", I thought, but first I had to acquire the ruddy thing. Starters for £4.50, one bidder and ending the next morning at 11:15, just as my wife and I were getting comfy in our cinema seats for a viewing of Inferno (turkey!). Next morning, bid static at £4.50, I entered a very modest maximum bid and bussed it into town with my Beautiful Wife to watch the film. Around 11:30 my ancient, like me, Blackberry starts blinking red in my pocket and after a quick check I discover that I am the winning bidder. Make my day! So the kit arrives in two days and it is pristine and it really must be, or nearly so, one of Airfix's best kits. So, anyway, although I haven't really started it yet, it's a sort of WIP because taking it out of the box and photographing it must count for something. Here are a few photos: A nice little kit, even with the rivets which, to be fair, are mere pinpricks and do not detract from the quality of this 30 something year old kit. Can't wait to get started on it. Now just need an Airfix Lynx to pair up with it. But which one? Cheers, and thanks for looking, Dennis Double photo post, I'll try to delete one
