Hi all,

I Haven't posted any for a while so here's a few recent one's from the local. Begining to get them well trained now - they've learnt from the Sea Kings and come over and pose! What I wouldn't give for a 'accurate' diecast of a AAC Apache!

Nice pics Gary, yes the Apache is certainly conspicious by its absence in the world of die cast!

Yeah, I noticed that when she came back to Wattisham a while ago. On her previous stint with 'B' Flight she carried the 'U', and the other current bird is coded (ZH543/X). '544 didn't when she was here last year and I don't think it has ever been coded. They've only got six aircraft to choose from and we never get the one with the 22 Squadron anniversary badge - ZH545/Z, the very last British Sea King. It's about time they changed these two again as I'm getting bored photographing the same couple! Hi planejunky, I dread to think what any of the diecast companies would do if they went for a WAH-64, they'd never get it right. I see enough plea's in the plastic world for one of the firms to stop and look at the WAH-64, rather than just slap AAC decals on a US AH-64D Longbow.
