Hafa Adai Everyone from Guam.[8D]…I’m presently working on my third version of the Academy Bell 47D…I’ve made a sister HTL-4 US Coast Guard Version complete w/pontoons. The instruction sheet is vague and I’m wondering if anybody has any good photo’s. Also any ideas on customizing a bit.
I’m trying to figure out a way to detail engine and rotor assembly???
Interior ideas would be helpful. Thanks in advance for any input.
Thanks to all, Eric[:)]
And here’s another one with a plethora of variants I did not know about…

Thanks for the PICS on the Bell 47D any others would be greatly appreciated. Engine has me slighly confused
How? I took some close-up pics of a Bell 47 at the Helsinki Air Museum in Finland. I can look for them, if you want…?
Yes, I would love to get any pics I can on this helo-some previous links were helpful. Eric[8D]
Eric, I’ll do my very best to find them. Give me a bit of time, but do not hesitate to remind me…!

They have a series on rebuilding a 47, as well as articles on history, specs etc.
Several pics with cockpit removed showing engine fan etc.
Hope this helps.
