Had this a while so I thought it's about time I started it. Another one from the stash.
This was the precursor to the Seaking.

Fuselage halves prepared for glazing. Cockpit and pilots' seats started.

Another helicopter, the collection must be quite something.

Not just "quite something" but also very large     

Is this the single engine aircraft?

Yes.

A juvenile Seaking then.......

You could say that even though the engine and rotors were the same as the S55.

Cockpit and cabin mounted into the fuselage. Some sanding may be required to get the other fuselage to fit.

Fuselage together and clamped.

Getting to grips with this one Chris

Nice subject. James Bond was winched up by an HH-52 (Sikorsky model designation S-62) in the film 'Thunderball'. That's quite a bit of metal for the S-55 powerplant and drivetrain to haul around! Definitely not enough engines,though...

I'll have to watch Thunderball again.

Tail section fitted.

Looking more helicopter like now.
Nicely faired in tail section.
