I know this is a ship forum etc, but I really would like to build some of the following. 1, AC-130 or C-130 2, Apache longbow attack helicopter I am currently building the Lancaster Bomber with Hatchet, and it makes a change to have a plane on the shelf along with the ships. Anyway that's just my thoughts, sorry if I wasted a couple of your minutes reading this post Best Wishes David Ship Builds on the go

Nice Model Magpie, is it yours? if so where did you get it from, or is it scratch built? The Lockheed C-130 is commonly recognised as the Hercules, it's a high wing, long range, land based monoplane. It has been designed to provide rapid transport of cargo and personnel, either by parachute or landing. It's ability to take off from short runways and the tactical ability to perform rapid descent into hostile landing zones make it one of the best performers of modern times. There are many designs around the world today, some are used as ambulances or search and rescue vehicles by the US Coastguard, some are used for express cargo delivery in disaster areas, to deliver emergency supplies like water and food, and then some are used as a lethal gun ship, more commonly known as the AC-130 Spectre Gunship, some of you would have seen one in operation In Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Ship Builds on the go

Not at all mate, Modeling is modeling no matter the subject. Looks very cool. I really like this interior lighting. something that I have started to do on my Victory model. Basic wiring loom is complete and lower gun deck LEDs added. Just starting on the mid gun deck today. You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice.
