Popular Post Viking Posted December 2, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted December 2, 2018 Westland Sea King Mk.43 330 Squadron Royal Norwegian Air Force 1996 Airfix 1:72 Every now and then I like to build something outside of my usual interest and scale, for a complete change. The New tool Airfix sea King fits the bill perfectly! It is a fabulous kit that fits very well. The paint scheme was a bit complex though, I must have used yards of Tamiya tape with all the masking it required. A thoroughly good kit, light years away from the 'old 66' Airfix Seaking I built as a kid, with its box art showing an Apollo capsule recovery. Thanks for looking, John 95 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger331 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 John, Great job on that 330 Skv Sea King Mk.43. They were a regular sight over and around our house for six years when we lived in Stavanger. Well Done, Sir ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bzn20 Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 (edited) On 12/2/2018 at 6:50 PM, Viking said: Royal Norwegian Air Force 1996 Brilliant ,great job . RAF wanted 8 and Westlands needed a minimum order of 10 to open up the line. So NorAF heard about it and ordered the two . I was on the production team for the last two NorAF Sea Kings in 96 , 329 & 330 , the very last Sea Kings built by Westland . The paint job is ace. Nice and crisp Well done and thanks !
