luis pacheco Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 Great ! Was difficult to find one on the last years. 1
AntPhillips Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 Great to see this one back in the range. 1
Danish Kenneth Posted January 10, 2022 Posted January 10, 2022 What is the source of the photo with four rather than three decal variants (in particular the second, blue German one), which does not appear on Airfix‘s website? 1
JamesP Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 I surprised to see it back as only a few years ago these were being flogged off for £15. Obviously demand has then increased as odd stock has dried up.
wellsprop Posted January 11, 2022 Posted January 11, 2022 On the colour plates, what's the strange disc on top of the Main Rotor Head Vibration Absorber?

RHWinter Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 Funny, this „Germany, England“-thing with the Bundeswehr version.
wellsprop Posted June 4, 2022 Posted June 4, 2022 Freightdog will be re-releasing the ROTORcraft Lynx HAS2/3 conversion, I will certainly be getting one, nothing quite like a blue Lynx! 2

Not a universal fitment, but was certainly on the Lynx 300 series among others. Fond memories of doing the electrical design on this one 🙂

Karearea Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Unexpectedly I think this is my highlight this year- built a 1/72 Lynx AH… something as a kid, and have wanted to build another Lynx since returning as an adult, but missed the last AH.7 and don’t like the Naval variants encrusted with sensors as much. Much the same with the Gnat reissue. 1
