Paul J Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 (edited) Here are the remaining pics of my Wessex HC2. It depicts XV724/BS of 18 Squadron in 1970 and the one I had a ride at low level over the German countryside in while on an ATC camp at Bruggen. The Wesex had come over from Gutersloh by the way.

Skii Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Very nice. Must build one of these one day because they turn out beautifully! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Python66 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 You've done a really great job on your Wessex. It’s beautiful. I love your camo ! My next Wessex will be painted in a camo pattern. What did you use for the wire ? I used fishing wire. Too bad you don't live nearby or we could have pictured ours together Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExRAF Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 It's impossible to have too many Walters. I think it's also nice to have a model relating to a personal event. Great finish and nice blade droop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyC Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 I followed your build thread and am impressed by the result. Great work on a subject that until I read your build thread I knew little about. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonbru1 Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Brings back fond memories, Paul. Flew low level in a Wessex on CCF (RAF) camp at Gütersloh in 1973. Very nicely built. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul J Posted February 8, 2012 Author Share Posted February 8, 2012 What did you use for the wire ? I used fishing wire.Too bad you don't live nearby or we could have pictured ours together Thanks All. Hi, Python, The wires were from the elasticated thread that Aeroclub do. A bit fiddly trying to get one end stuck firmly before stretching to fix the other end though but win in the end. the excess was then trimmed with a very new blade! All I need do now is decide what to do with the Choctaw remains and the HU5 fuselage! Maybe a sort of hybrid H-34 or rework the windows to the smaller one! Or a What if...?
