Joseph Osborne of Fireball Modelworks has just announced a new resin and decal set to correct the 1/48 Trumpeter HH-65 Dauphin kit and has decals for just about all current USCG HH-65s. It looks great.
Here are the decals and resin parts to the update/correction set. They looks pretty nice and complete.

Joseph is looking for some feedback on it as well. He writes:

"I need some feedback on the 1/48 resin set; right now it includes a new tail and fan, new nose and pitots, and a new hub cap with the mast. I have corrected rotor blades that I have not included in the set because they are fairly easy (but time-consuming) to fix. My original thought was that adding them to the set would increase the cost unnecessarily. However, if there is enough demand for them I can add them to the set and increase the cost by a few dollars, or perhaps offer them separately.

What do you guys think? It's okay to email me at [email protected] with your thoughts or post them here.

Thanks,
Joseph"

I zipped off an Email to Joseph asking (begging) for a set to make the correct 'A' models too! Looks to me as if his set is for the C model, and all my hours were in A models. BUT the set does have the correct Fenestron and tail blade assy, as well as the OADS mast. Mac
