AeroparkDave Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Great work and fabulous to see! I’m not sure there were any ‘bagged’ sea kings on the Falklands in 1982? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are totally correct, none during the conflict but just after the end of hostilitys cyber hobbys technical boo boo not mine, although they were shipped there pronto I'm unsure how long after the surrender, thanks glad you like it so far Glynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hewy Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) Some more sea king shenanigans I've called a halt on the interior and set about some mild mods to the main door area, I've still to do the fuel filler point under the door, it is looking a bit more sea king ish though, not much to see I know but movement all the same , a check with the door in position, still needs filler and touching up yet Thanks for all your input everyone, I appreciate it Before After Edited March 26, 2019 by Hewy 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I’ve only just learned they refuelled Seakings in the air off the back of frigates with hoses in the Falklands.. I want to build one, looks like a lot of experienced work 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hewy Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 (edited) I'm having some great pointers valk from @andyf117, else it would probably have the fuselage glued together by now, great looking helo though, we need a modern new mold 48th or 35th,scale royal navy one, that would keep us busy Edited March 26, 2019 by Hewy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its going to be difficult to fill that groove nicely and sand the area without damaging the raised runner, so I whizzed it off, but I've got a plan to replace that after the filling and the fuel filler are done 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hewy Posted March 30, 2019 Author Share Posted March 30, 2019 A little closer to closing the fuselage, seats and fuel filler next By the way its eduard choice of colours for the instruments and panel, not mine 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickoshea52 Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Nice build so far. I’m interested to see the detail on the main rotor head in comparison the new Airfix offering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Law Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Glynn you are making a splendid job of this. I'm going to watch it a bit close from here. Only two days to go and I should be able to get started on my projects. I realized I don't need computers to do my projects. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hewy Posted April 30, 2019 Author Share Posted April 30, 2019 I'm back on track with the sea king build, The fuel filler has been cut out and the lower door runner reinstated, a blast over with barley grey to check all is well And my scratch built cockpit seats are painted and fitted, with eduard belts, nearly ready to button up, I'm going to use the kit seats with the eduard etch for the rear console seats they look OK from behind 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
