                        Trigger.....

                        The forward & aft pylon's are a bit too short in scale, incorrect rotors, and the overhead transparencies aren't shaped correctly ... other than that Whistling [:-^], it's an acceptable duplication. Reference the photo link below:

                        http://147thhillclimbers.org/mh47size.jpg

                        And yes, the Chinook's are "swimmers", designed to do so even with the Ramp down.

                        Take care,
                        Frank

                        I'm sorry I can't help you on this, but I'd like to thank you for sharing the video.
                        The boat thing is HOT!Laugh [(-D]
                        Great idea for a Dio ... when and if someone will come out with a 1/35 Chinook.

                        I saw that 1/72 Italeri MH-47E kit my hobby shop today and lately I've been on a "Nightstalkers" kick (MH-60L, MH-6) and I was curious about it. The FSM review of the kit was positive, but is the kit accurate? I thought I read a post saying that the kit was based on a painting?

                        I just got thru reading about this bird over at globalsecurity.org and it sounds as tough and mean as it looks. And I didn't know Chinooks could "swim"! (http://popularmechanics.com:80/popmech/movie2/47ECHO.mov)
