My first build of 2012. I had built both MRC's Bell 47D, and Revell's 47G. I combined the skids from the D kit with the rest of the G/H kit to make N975B from the old 50's series, The Whirlybirds. Thanks to Roadhawg(Tommy) for the Whirlybirds decals.

X2, I had forgotten that one! I dreamed of being a chopper pilot as a kid. Plus there was "Sky King" with his twin-engined whatever it was. Exciting stuff!

Several planes represented the Songbird in Sky King. The best known one was a Cessna 310B. Below is Songbird III, a 1960 Cessna 310D.

Yeah! Rotors beside brakes in this forum, I always wanted to build Chuck and PT's copter until I saw the color scheme. I hate to see what the 47J was painted for use in B&W film. Love the Bell 47, one of my bucket list items was a ride in a 47, which is fading fast,

I also combined the two kits, even have a rough master for the expanded tanks for the 1/35ths

Here is my G Mark 1/20 scale

and my Esoteric models 1/72nd bell 47
