    Thanks for the info, 334_Pegasus.

    I believe the H-19/S-55 was an important helicopter being the first “real” troop transport chopper as well as the basis for the Whirlwind.

    Wonder how many are still flying ?

    It’s very authentic looking and doesn’t have that ridiculous ** 26 tailwheel on it…

    Well, judging by the pic, it’s not a scale Spit…

    Plus it has some sort of shroud over the exhausts, maybe a V6 powered example ?

    nice pic, 334_Pegasus.

    Row of S-55’s scrapped.

    Assume that was taken at Davis-Montan AFB ?

    My life long dream is to go and visit there. I shall do it one day !!

    I reckon there’s something about a warbird with a 5-bladed prop which makes it look powerful, even stopped…

    (ie Sea Fury, Late Spits)

    Does ring a bell.

    Was that the drama aboard the RN Frigate ?

    I do remember watching that, if that’s the one and I think that’s where the Phantom scene came from….:confused:
