monogram's old Rambo 1/24th Huey chopper

I would ref. Olivers build, to say it is detailed would be a DRASTIC understatment.

Thanks Shawn!!  The majority of the pics are not there, but, what I did see...I had to pick myself up off the floor!!! Thanks again, 6pkk

I cant recall, you may need to be an LSP member to view some of the pics.

His build is staggering!

For info on Vietnam Hueys, check out this thread.  It will take a while to get through, but should answer all your questions.

Good luck on it.  It is a dog of a kit.  The interior is lacking details and it is way over-simplified.  Personally, I wouldn't waste my time on it, but if you just have to have a 1/24 Huey, its all there is.  I'll stick with the much better detailed 1/35 versions.

I also am a car/truck guy who scored a 1/24th Huey kit. I'm currently convering it to an Ontario air ambulance. It is a whole different way of building models for me. I'm not used to seems down the centre lines and having  ejector pin marks and attachment points on the visible side of parts. Any way it will be painted Omaha Orange with white lettering  and the things that go bang in the kit will be deleted

Thanks

You guys want UH-1B refs, I'd spring for THIS DVD.  It contains over 1.500 images, most of which were taken by me.  However, I'm not getting a dime if you buy one so this isn't about me making money.  It is just the most practical way to get all the short bodied Huey pics you'll ever need.  I'm also happy to answer any UH-1B questions you might have or provide additional refs. While I can't fly them, I have a pretty decent working knowledge of the UH-1B in US Army service.   Good luck and please post pics.
