I'm taking this form my huey bible (CHICKENHAWK) that it was up to the individual which seat he sat in. I know most of the pilots move when the where deemed right side competent. But some were used to flying left seat and where a little superstitious about moving.

Any who…. It could change and be the pilot with the M16 and the co-pilot on the controls, nothing is set in stone with the model just yet.

I always thought that the co-pilot's seat was on the left side in rotary wing aircraft. Am I wrong?

Nice job !!!

The academy/mrc kit of uh-1c "heavy hog" have the ref 2199, and the frog the ref 2196.
It's a fantastic kit, probably the best one at 1/35 scale. (I bought the both, not started unfortunately )
and Eduard produce three photoetched sets....perfects, as usual !!!!

I know about the m60 gunner. He is the co-pilot and he is going to have a 16 when I'm finished. It's to tie in with my dio of "No one left behind".
The kit is the academy 1/35 heavy hog, not sure of the code.

I will post more pics as and when I get them

Looks great so far. Couple of points though. I hope you do not plan on leaving the gunner/pilot in the right front seat. I have never seen an M60 gunner up in the cockpit, I think it is a little too cramped for that. Also, may be the lighting, but the cockpit and cabin color look a little green to me. They should be a medium gray color.

Getting the dreaded X. You have to post the photos to a server, not your computer for them to show up.
