GeeWhiz. Has it been two months already?

Paint is on and much of the heavy work is complete. I'll finish up the details and get it photographed in the next week or so.

 

 

Window to hull fit here...not so much. I think the fuselage side may have warped a little during its four decades of storage.

But this side fit very well.

I started work on the base this morning. I'm not sure how much effort I want to make there. But I'm thinking yachtboard helipad.

Hi John

Should the color not be Olive Drab and where is the mini gun? Just kidding! Your build is awesome. :clap2:I have always had a special interest in the Hughes 500 ever since buying my first Squadron Signal book Gunslingers way back in 1974.
