    Petes 1/72 Matchbox Westland Wessex HU.5

    High time I entered into a group build other than my own.
    So I have found one that fits and a color scheme that also close enough.

            Nice choice Peter. I do like a bit of 'Matchbox' once in a while. Humphrey was the famous helicopter used in the Falklands war.

              Hi Peter
              Looks to be a decent kit. Good start.
