    Well done! πŸ‘

    Two mistakes? No pilot or co-pilot? πŸ˜† (just kidding)

    I see the rear elevator is down and there is a white artifact in the background?

      Ta mate, the aircraft is climbing out so the stab is down, possibly too much. The artifac is one, it's a small dacal blank which I should have deleted when I tidied up the panel.

      One of the rescue paanels has not been textured inside so there is a glare 'inside' the box.

      As an aside I forgot to complete the landing lights on the rear sponsons, there is some glow but the actual light unit has not been fitted.

      I need more glow effect on the landing and navigation lights, you got this right but am lagging behind a bit. I will have to catch up is all.

      Ah yes, the pilots. Well they went on the razz and forgot to turn up for their take off slot so the aircraft reported them for slevenly behaviour and left them to dry up.

      Might be some more panels and certainly (When I stop gibbering at the thought) more decals including call and ID insignia. Toying with the idea of a slightly garrish piece of nose art if I can find somewhere it can be sized to be noticed.

        That turned our real nice mate nice work πŸ‘ πŸ‘ I see you have changed it a bit for the better. It now looks like ceter of gravity coincides with center of lift as it should πŸ˜‰

          Ta mate, agree re CoG and CoL, took a bit of tweaking is all and it might get a bit more. Instrument clusters still require a shroud too.

          Currently thinking of a cartoon roadrunner for the nose art.

            Was following the WIP so this is great to see. Keep adding details.

            When I saw the first concept it reminded me of this...

                Well they were getting phased out, so I can see them getting legless. πŸ˜†

                  The contract lawyer they hired suggested their being legless too, weird that.

                  Starting to hit the wall so I will have to reduce the decals somewhat.

                      Still having an issue with the medical insignia (Serpent in a six bar emblem) which is lost in a black circle.

                      Finally got to paint the engine and rotor head housing properly.

                      Rich, I even have one of those but it was not an inspiration. Honest. Seriously.......... 🀣

                        Top notch! πŸ‘ πŸ‘

                        I've had problems with decals not rendering before. Try ungrouping the image in SU and then render. Sometimes it works.

                          Really nice work Mike πŸ‘ Not a biggy but the orange cowling under the rotor head looks like cheap plasic and lets it down a bit IMO

                                Say, did they hire a new pilot or did they let the other back after drying out? I think I know that guy. πŸ˜†
