This is the latest
edition Bell UH1C used by the 1st Air Cav in Vietnam. I decided to make
this model again as I l love Hueys. The model went together well as
usual straight out of the box except I added visors to the pilots and gunner
using Testors putty and shaped them when the putty had dried.

I added seat belts
from duct tape and small micros on the helmets. I painted it with standard
paint Testors Olive Drab with a can of Dull Coat to tone it down. Decals
were from the spares box. The action pics used a few firecrackers and a
smoke bomb for effectto give a change from the usual pictures. It was a
good kit to make. Just wish MRC would bring out a 1/35th UH1D.
