Academy 1:48 MH-6: looking for tips/references

Hi all, I just ordered this kit because it was on sale on Squadron and I was picking a few other things. I built one several years ago, but I can't remember anything about the kit itself, and it was thrown away quite awhile ago, so I can't exactly go back and check. So I just thought I'd post on here where somebody might know what I've gotten myself into- I'm planning on adding quite a bit of scratchbuilt detail to the base kit, but it'd be nice to be aware of any inaccuracies and other quirks with the kit, as I can't find anything on that subject online. Also, it seems that there is a shortage of pictures of the cockpit interior available online- can anyone point me in the right direction in that respect?

I'm also planning on possibly modifying the kit to represent an actual MH-6 (with the troop "benches" mounted outside), and possibly cutting away the crew doors like I've seen in a few photos- does anyone know how common the door removal was, and does anyone know of the dimensions/specs of the "benches?"

Thanks,

-Josh
