Gang, I'm in the process of building a 1/700 icebreaker (the Northwind)
circa 1965. I've got the Loose Cannon version, but that's circa
1945--when new. My Father-in-law was on the '65 cruise, so I've got to
update it a bit.
I've found some good reference material on that particular ship, and
what changes it went through. One of the largest was deleting the
seaplane and adding a helo deck--a couple of HTL-4s (I think) were on
there. So, does anyone make a 1/700 scale HTL-4 or similar (a Sioux
would be fine, I can put floats on it--I just need the bubbletop and
the open tailboom)?
Either separate, or maybe included in a 1/700 ship kit?
Also, anyone know what the exact landing craft they had would be? Look like just a generic motorboat, but I'd like to make sure.
One final question--for storage in the hangar, did the rotors fold? I'd like one stored, and one on the flight deck.
Thanks,
Dan
