I picked this vintage kit up from a model stall at the RAF Waddington Air Show earlier this year. For £10, I couldn't resist! There's a Falklands War scheme option which I'll be doing, as I was based there (Mt Kent), in the early 90's.
Sprue shots to follow soon.

Cheers mate. The Chinook display at Waddington was the highlight for me. The way the pilot slung the beast about was awesome!! Good luck with your model too!

Nice one,
Is there a date on this to say when it was manufactured?

That's a big bird in a small scale. Will be nice to see a Matchbox kit come together.

Apologies to all but I won't be able to meet this GB deadline due to a hectic past few weeks with work and family. I will complete the kit though one day!
