Hawkwrench

There was a episode on that incident ( don't remember what show). They interviewed him and he told them the roll is what threw him free and the helo actually rolled on top of him, but the deep snow kept him from being crushed to death. Darn lucky to be alive after that!!! Tim

Yeah, no!!! I'll pass on that. I'm scared to even attempt an in-flight after Pete's work. Let alone the re-riveting of the entire helo. Tim

You've got me thinking about an inflight hoist rescue involving a Ky National Guard UH-60 medevac from 2019 where they rescued an injured civilian off a cliff. MAYBE!!!!!!!! Tim

If it's not too late, you oughta remove the metal nuts and just use your rivet decals. Their are no bolts there in the paddles. Tim

Great recovery Pete!!! (Like you couldn't do it!) Tim

No, they are offset. That is the left plume detector. Tim

I bet the AF museum would take this in a heartbeat!!! Tim

I just dropped my jaw seeing the plume detectors Pete. Your skills are scary brother Tell us how you painted them??? Tim

Any chance you could make a set for the Kitty Hawk H-60 helicopters that have been coming out? Pleeease! Tim

Me, I watch anything to do with US Army helicopters, general aviation flying and any model building channels. The one I like the most is called Aviation101. His name is Josh and he is an excellent pilot and he makes awesome videos (mini movies) of his flying adventures. Here's the link https://youtube.com/c/Aviation101 Tim

I'm BUYING ONE for sure!!!! With all the figure painting and rivets?, yeah I'm getting one? Tim

Kev, try talking Pete into making an ebook for his HH-60G build! I know I'd buy a copy! Tim

Pete, Why don't you submit all of this beautiful build to KLP publishing so they can create an ebook of this build??? Pleeeeease! Tim

What exactly is KLP publishing? Another model magazine like FSM? EDIT: Nevermine, I found it Too bad Pete didnt didn't do an ebook on his HH-60G build!!! Tim

I'd love to see that!!! Tim

I found this for you Pete. Maybe you can use it for refefence. Tim

You mean squirrels??? Tim

This is the first thread I look at when I open up LSP and I just shake my head at the amount of REAL LOOKING detail that is in this build and then I just shake my head!!! Tim

It looks perfect to me Pete! Tim

Ok, I see. Thanks for explaining that Chuck. 1 last question, how to you tape the area you just glued without getting the tape in the cement which causes a nasty mess? Tim

So the blade holding the fuselage open idea. Is that so when you apply the extra thin cement and then close it up, the plastic melting from the cement fills in the seam??? Tim

My thoughts exactly!!! I would consider Pete to be a master modeler! Every pic he posts looks like the real deal. Tim Tim

Um yeah!!!! I definitely agree with that statement. Vegas would be a perfect NATS for Pete to take his model seeing that Nellis is full of AF CSAR helos! Tim

Ernest. Gotcha! Tim

So use the kimwipes moistened with Isopropyl alcohol??? Tim
