Hi everyone ;
My apologizes for my absence of late , I've been really busy on the home front .
But first off , a big congrats' to Andy for the awesome F-84 dio . Everything looks great around the aircraft .
I would be taking that back home along with the firstaid station you built Andy , when you leave Korea . Their much too nice to leave behind .
Stik , awesome WIP on your H-13 build . I'm really tempted to go and buy one of those Academy kits as I have some really old MASH figures I could re-paint and include in a dio .
These original builds have been sitting in one of the spares box's for quite a few years now and if I remember correctly they were some of the first builds I ever did , probably about 25 years ago now .

The two MASH helicopters ( obviously in correct as Korean War H-13 versions ) were built and painted in one of those two day - gluue everything together and not much painting involved sessions .
A litttle more paint to the Figures and jeep but also finished in about a day

Am I to understand correctly Stik from that picture you posted earlier that the Academy kit doesn't have the Stretcher shields included , perhaps I could use one set from the revell H-13

I suppose I could rebuild my original Revell H-13 as Vietnam War Helo's ? I wonder if there are any weapons sets available to replace the stretchers ???
I sure am tempted to buy one of those nice Academy 1/35 H-13's ![Stick out tongue](http://cs.finescale.com/emoticons/emotion-4.gif)
