Title: Aérospatiale SA 365 Dauphin
Post by: Jicehem on October 28, 2008, 05:56:48 PM

Hi mates,

The only one "Dauphin" used by the Armée de l'air at 1/60 GLAM.
The kit is the Matchbox one that I built in 1993 but the white paint had become yellowish and the decals had become reddish...
After I found a new decal sheet, I decided to restaure the kit and by the occasion I added five seats and... curtains (thanks to the fact I cement the windows with clear varnish).
I've improved the main landing gear covers and added too the three ventral antennaes...
Things I didn't add 15 years ago...

I remember that Yu Dophen, it was used by Police and when I was detached at Kosovo in 1990 in the special police unit, Minister visit us and he come with this machine. As well briefing was boring I have skip this part of his visit and stay all time with helicopter and remeasure it.
