Hello,
I'd love to hear from anyone who has an interest in the German world war two helecopter programmes and has had experience building any of the 1/72 scale models out there..i have built the Fa 223 Drache by Huma many years ago..it was only recently i got up the guts to take the canopy off the front and actually weigh it down so it sits on it's front wheel...that was only because i dropped it carrying it down the stairs..great stuff superglue isn't it for fixing serious damage to models!

Steve,
Great minds again I was actually working on scratch building a Fa 223 Drache when Huma released their kit. I now have the scrap of the scratch build in my spares box and the unbuilt Huma kit in my stash.

..very nice Steve....& some unusual Luftwaffe subjects there too
BTW welcome to aeroscale ...I too am mostly into Luftwaffe (in 72nd), although not currently having an airbrush limits the range of subjects I can reasonably attempt..
