   Unbelivable! Thanks so much!

PS (it looks like after an outstanding "Huey season" last year now its time for SuperCobra!)

Glad you guys like the pics. any interest in UH-1N or SH-60B? They were there fresh off active duty as well.  I have about 100 pics of the Huey (of course) and quite a few of the Seahawk.  I figure I better photograph every helo I see from now on as there is always someone looking for them.  Just let me know if you want more.  Although, I posted all the Whiskey pics I have right now.

Thanks for pictures they will come in handy as i have just started Academy's 1/35 AH-1W NTS Update.

And for sure i am really interested in the Huey pics as well as i have three Ns im my stash here.

Thanks Again

Who Ray you nailed it on that new retrofit exhaust! That Y shaped duct is the new elusive one that is not represented in kits, and was planned and may be going onto the Zulu and Yankee.

If you have any more shots of that exhaust duct send 'em. All I have are protoype shots and mock-ups!

 This is what I find at all airshows.

Bring a jet. Yawn....seen it dozens of times on TV.

Bring a Snake or a Slick.....instant attrraction!

David,

  I'm still kicking myself that i didn't take more pics of that exhaust!  I knew it was the o ne for the Yankee and Zulu, but I just didn't get any great shots.  Here is the only other one I have that might help with modeling it.  The first is the full shot, the second is a cropped version with focus on the exhausts.  Trust me, if i see one of these again you'll have a COMPREHENSIVE walkaround!

David,

The turned exhaust is getting more common.  Go to usmc.mil and search the image archive for AH-1W sorted newest first and you will get a few decent model detail level pictures.

Ray,

Thanks for sharing.

Good shots of the W Ray.  Thanks for sharing those.

I've got 3 major scratchbuilding projects going right now, one of them being the turned exhausts in 48th.  I think the exhaust section will end up being a drop-in deal, so it will be castable in resin.  heh heh heh....

Jon

uhhhhhh YAH send those November and Bravo pics. Nothing like fresh use stainage to print and put next to your kit for those never-werked-on-em's at contests that say that "helicopters dont GET that dirty in real life" (boy have I argued that one!!!)

Lay it in on us Ray, lay it in...best yet, burn me a CD ! :D

David

Supercobra

thanks much, Im nailing that link down for good measure and grabbing the pics.

 This is the kind of photo that I REALLY dig, something has been changed on the A/C and it stands out from the rest of the machine. I have a pic on myown walkaround page on HoverLovers Model Page of a November with two different types of LOVIS warning stencil in front of the intake (half solid, half outline and they dont match up--differnent forward doghouse from a different ship).

Once I finish the 48th scale TOW Huey and HH-3E that I'm doing, I'll get back to those exhausts.
