Heller 1:400 Charles de Gaulle (81072)
2014#4


Laid down in April 1989 and launched in May 1994 and at 35,500 tonnes (42,000 fully laiden) she is the tenth aircraft carrier for the French navy and her first nuclear powered surface ship.















I bought this kit for half price in Woolworths about ten years ago and stated it around 2006 a long time occupent of the shelf of doom which I am happy to say has been finished.

Lovely stuff, well done.

You've done a fine job filling the deck - are the aircraft from the kit as they look rather nice.

[Johni044]

Indeed they are Dan and the decals for them come with it as well. There are more than those displayed I just didn't want the flight deck too cluttered.

Looking good ! Well done !

Well played John. You've done a remarkable job on her. Another build to tick off from the shelf of doom.
