OOHHH you could finish it off with a typhoon profile head on. Then the wording.

Afraid I'll have to take a pass on this one, Owl. Sorta had my heart set on the Komet. Got a few F-84G's in the stash, but they just ain't doing anything for me at the moment.

its alright, mate. No problem

Owl- The Chinook is a Native American tribe, like the Apache, Iroquois, etc. that all of the US helicopters get named.

I know it was actually named after the tribe, but lookie here...it fits!

I believe there is also a Chinook salmon, but the wind would be the connection...

My Raiden is probably going to be the Arii 1:48, an old classic -- I've wanted to try these easy old builds for a long time, and just concentrate on finish, maybe even try salt weathering...

Hawker Hurricane. No idea which mark, but I can't believe that hasn't been taken yet.

Owl- The Chinook is a Native American tribe, like the Apache, Iroquois, etc. that all of the US helicopters get named.

Or as many call them, the Shithook.

Wow, can't believe that got through...

I wasn't sure why the Chinook was vaild either. But i did a search and it seems there are Chinook winds. Its a certain type of wind found on the Canadian Prairies and the Great Plains. I know thats not the Chinook the helo is named after, but i think it would still count.

Owl, mine is the 72nd Matchbox kit. Its the same one i did for the Falklands war GB.
