You need to add:
1. More photos
2. Why you want it, not just "has anyone tried this"
3. Specs e.g weight size etc
4. General history and info to get modded interested.

So add that sp this great heli has a chance!

^  What kaxii said.

This chopper could get some serious attention, it's a multi tasker and could surely deliver tons of hrs of entertainment and appreciation  ;)

Also, two which are somewhat iconic to the British, for very different reasons:

RAF SAR Seaking


"Junglie" more properly known as the Westland Commando; used as a battelbus by the Royal Marines. I believe they have one which has been shot down 3 times...
