The Reveal of my Scout from Airfix
some of the problems encountered during the build.

Always good to see a classic kit like the Scout getting some love. Enjoyed the vid.

Nice!.. we used the Wasp with our RNZN.. similar chopper 👍🇳🇿

If ever a kit needed retooling, it is this. I must have bought dozens of these, literally, as a Westland Scout and Wasp obsessed kid, but I could never be happy with the results.

Nice work. Built this kit in my youth. Almost more gaps than plastic.. Built mine as a Royal Australian Navy Scout (Yes, RAN used the Scout and not the Wasp).

John Parker Hi john almost finished just touching up and adding the small and delicate parts.

I made (sort-of) one of these many years ago. Nightmare, worst kit I've ever had. I displayed mine in the B1N.

Yes it needs a lot of love to get a reasonable result I had to put a strip of plastycard at the bottom of the windscreen to get it to fit
