Gertjan Zwart s i g h . . . and Revell keeps on bringing this kit to the shelves in yet another livery. The kit though has its share of problems and these remain. The landing gear is completely wrong; too low and the frontal part of the skids is too long. The cable deflectors can cover the latter up but the low nose down- sit of the kit still hurts the eye. Extra parts are included on extra sprues but still missing is the correct low skid landing gear. The kit ofcourse is not expensive and could be targetted to the beginning modeller but imho is much too difficult for this group: fit is exeptionally poor; windows, exhausts and rotor require a carload of work to achieve acceptable results. A frustrating little kit imho and it's about time Revell would throw in completely new moulds for the entire kit!
