Hi all,

I have been offered a very cheap AMT AC-130. However, I don't need the Gunship as I did that a long time ago with the Airfix kit but what I do need is a transport C-130H .
How much modification would be needed to achieve the conversion ?
As I can't see the kit until I've bought it, I am wondering if a lot of gun ports would have to be blanked off or do the armaments just attach to a blank fuselage ?
I know all things are possible with filler and plastkcard but as there are reasonably priced transport versions out there, is the conversion worth while ?

All the best,

Kristian.

Hi all,.

The situation has now remedied itself as I found two Airfix (Italeri) C-130H kits at only a few pounds more.

All the best,

Kristian
