Hi,
My grandfather was one of Howard Hughes' senior staff. He was on the Spruce Goose when it flew, responsible for a number of major projects, etc.
For his contributions to the OH-6A program he was presented a scale model of the helicopter.
My parents' cleaning people have done a number on it over the years and I'd like to get it repaired. I'm pretty handy, but this is out of my area of expertise. In particular, one of the rotor blades has gone missing and I'm betting that to make a new one will require a mold to be pulled from one of the existing blades and a new one cast.
I'm looking for the right person/company/whatever to restore this thing to its original condition.
Any references would be appreciated.
