YES!!!
Don’t believe me?
ALRIGHT!!! [tup][tup]

I have searched a few places …no mention on its ETA.
[:p]
I gotta get me one of them!!!
[:p]
Did this one sneak up under “radar” or did anyone hear about it before? It will be a most welcomed kit. Maybe they will do a CH-47 if this sells well. I guess asking for a “53” would be too much. I need to start saving my quarters!
$50 for a 48th Phrog? dang. Long time coming, but that better be one nice kit for that price. Now how about a 53 Echo, Academy?
Matt.
If it is anything like their 1/48 Blackhawks. It will be worth the money.
I just wish they would include some good 1/48 crew figures!!!

I’m waiting for a 1/48 scale CH-53E. One from the Mighty Condors of HMH-464, would certainly be a joy. I guess I’ll just get one of these phrogs. I hope they have HMM-365 markings. 365 are the guys who killed the Al Queda’s and Republican Guards
As you may have already noticed… the Model Companies are putting out LARGER kits…so it seems that us Helo guys are finallly getting our share!
and thats cool with me! [8D]
Quiet in the briefing room!
Hooker! put that thing away!!..Chopperfan! cut that out!
OK…First:
It looks like the ETA on the Academy 1/48 SeaKnight is April/May 2004.
Second: PT is at 05 hundred instead of 06!
Thats it.
I would love that CH-53E with HMH-462 Markings…Actually they should include markings for all of the squadrons, what do you think RidleUSMC?
The 0500 part I could handle. But, that PT crap would probably kill me!!!

seeing as about the only difference between most every HMH bird is whatever 3 digit squadron number is painted after “HMH-” on the a/c, it wouldn’t be that difficult to do it. The only ones really different are the HMX-1 birds.
Cool!! Maybe just a bit pricey but juging from Academy’s previous releases I’m sure it will be a great kit. -
Just wish I could remember the squadrons that were @ Futemna in ’ 86. Guess it’s that CRS starting to creep up on my old brain! - Calvin
