Here is my out the box MRC Bell 47. Nice detail on the rotir head assembly and engine, the rest is so-so

Nice work.

Great Work! I love the old Bell 47. It’s hard to believe they could fly, because they look so flimsy.

Nice work, Theuns. You going to paint the framing on the bubble?

Nice model. Saw one flying where I live couple years ago, very common over Sacramento & Southern California where I’d lived decades ago. At Los Angeles County Fair in Pomona 1962 had chance to go up in one for 10 minutes, cost U.S. $15, lotta money then, forgone experience - darn!

Dang! I don’t believe I’d be brave enough to ride in one of those things!
