Who cares is it's biased or not. I agree with Sal; we do need some HH-3 kits. That was an important aircraft

HH-3E JOLLY GREEN and the HH-3F PELICAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

C'mon guys. This has got to be the most overlooked yet important Helo.

OK...maybe I'm biased but gimme a break! Anybody else agree? DKMacin? Grant? Gino?

I too, would like to see a 1/48 CH-54 Skycrane, AND/OR a CH-37 Mojave kit. So how come ,other than Revell's 1/72 scale CH-54, and an old (?) 1/72 scale vacuform kit of the CH-37, no one has made another, of either, in any other scale??!!

There's never (to the best of my limited knowledge) been a kit of the Mojave in any scale.
from what I've read, it was an important piece of kit early on in Vietnam.
Plus, have you ever seen an uglier contraption?
How about a 1/48th S 58 Seahorse/Seabat/Westland Wessex.
My first few years in the RAF were spent doing deep maintenance on the old Wessex,
Corrosion city! We used to outline the corrosion with chalk, to be dealt with later, one day a very senior officer, on an inspection, asked my Corporal why he'd chalked the word 'Rust' next to the outlines. "Can't spell Corrosion, Sir" came the reply, exit VSO trying not to laugh!

The 'ole Monogram Hind is decent, but I'm spoiled and want something better. Wink [;)]

No Sky Crane nor UH-34D! Speaking of Sky Crane, take a look at this 1/48 scratch built baby ...

Gots to have the Sea Stallion. It's intimidating and tough.

I voted for one, but there are several that I'd like to see that aren't on the list.

Most desired 1/48 helicopter kit?

Ok rotorheads, thought I give us scale-modelling helo fans a chance and cast your vote on the most desired 1/48th helicopter, you'd want to see!

If I missed one, just cast your vote as other.
