I think all is working again now. Please leave a comment on a photo somewhere if something you need is not working still.

I have added a centreline pylon for a scratchbuilt fuel tank.

I've been using that site for years for my planes. Finally, recently, I used the Yahoo Babelfish Translator on the site, and it helps dramatically. Some of the direct translations of the names of the planes and manufacturers are even quite comical.

I hope you keep us posted on this build Rod, Ive wanted to build a helicopter for awhile and this Westland youre working on is coming along beautifully! That website you posted is great too...lots of usable layouts of all sorts of aircraft. Now I just wish I could remember my Russian! :P

This is the Westland version of the Sikorsky S-55 Choctaw I believe. Next will be to start on the cockpit then the undercarriage.

Have included a crew seat in the rear compartment. Very tricky as I had to leave half this side of the fusaelage off until I built the interior.

My second project on the go. A scratch built Westland Wessex in 1/24 scale. (Can you add this to the aircraft list?))
RodN, Image # 1426701 Oct 09 02:48

Spray putty applied now to my second work in progress.
RodN, Image # 1426601 Oct 09 01:49

This is a nice model to build. Not quite sure on the colourscheme yet??? Next step after doping will be 2 coats of automotive spray putty hand painted on then sanded as smooth as my patience will allow.
RodN, Image # 1426501 Oct 09 01:46

I have removed the flaps as I am not sure if I will build this with them down or up.
RodN, Image # 1426401 Oct 09 01:45

My new build, lined and ready for doping.
