Hughes MD500D

This is a Profiline 1/72nd model. The mouldings are very clean. I'll be building the one on the box.

Nice, but small, you are starting to rekindle my love for helicopters.
I sorted my file out of helicopters to let you have just before lockdown last March, but never got  them to you, maybe in the future.

Do you mean photos of the ones you've made Dave?
I have plenty more to make yet and rekindle your enthusiasm.

I kept a folder on helicopters, models and other information, it might be of interest,

Hi Chris,
Been watching, and I am impressed.
I know how 'small' the Italeri Hughes 'Cayuse' is in 1/72. A Hughes 500 family member.
So, this model, will be small yet intricate.
Keep going Chris, It will look great once finished.
Cheers,
Bigkev
 
I hope my next is always better

Probably both, only one is perfectly formed though!
