me too,after 10 issues subscription i will also go selective as i'm only interested in military helis. not those commercial or rescue ones.

yups! would be strange for fighters aircraft to be gunning down civies...

Bad news is according to UK issues, a whole lot of them are commercial and resuce helis.

you saw my target lock list or not? me gunning for the military choppers also...

I saw but what im telling you just now is there are more of those commercial and rescue helis more than military helis. Which is disappointing.

not that many military choppers out there anyway, and even fewer attack choppers... and they generally have long production lifespans. the choppers have rather distinct roles from fixed wing aircraft, so i guess it is only natural that they ended up in sar/logistics ops.

but i'm not really familiar with choppers. mind sharing what other models you were hoping to be included in the series? personally, i'm satisfied with what's on offer according to the uk edition (although i would've preferred the apache and the apache longbow compared to the puma and super puma).

all the models i want is already in the UK issues
ex:
Issue 9: Agustawestland Lynx
Issue 12: Bell UH-1 Huey
Issue 13: Piaseki H-21 Shawnee
Issue 19: Super Cobra/Viper
Issue 24: A129 Mangusta
Issue 27: SA330 Puma
Issue 30:Super Puma/Cougar
Issue 32: RAH-66 Comanche
Issue 34: Kamov "Helix"
Issue 36: MIL "HIP"
Issue 38: Mi-28 Havoc
Issue 39: Sikorsky Seahwak
Issue 40: MH53

I might consider somemore but most likely the rest which i didn't state above I am most likely not interested in them.

MI-24 Hind what issue??

No CH-54??

if you refer back to first page will see where is MI-24.

CH-54 were not appear in this collection.

ya lor, only 13 pages also didn't read. didn't use search function also...

yups, that's what i thought. the uk series pretty comprehensive already.

Guys,
Do you have any trouble fixing the apache blade? I can't fit it in, its quite lose, looks like need to use glue.

inside the magazine did said if needed can use some glue on it.
depend to yourself.
such like Issue 8 "Eurocopter Tiger" surely need glue to fix the blades.

my eurocopter tiger didn't have any problems with its rotors, but i had problems with my mil mi4a rotors. nothing a little glue couldn't resolve, though. guess the problem is not model dependent, but item specific.

there is up to issue 10 in Allscript all are available except issue #1 which is OOS. they just re-ordered issue #1 so you'd have to wait.

Im buying selective issue's, gotta say the Apache Longbow is a thing of beauty!

i suppose the lynx (issue #9) and the whirlwind (issue #10) are up next?

yups, that's what ambika told me about issue #1 too... the oos part. as for just reordering, she told me that too... early last month. so they've either only just re-ordered, or it's all a whole lot of bull hoping that the retailers return some (hopefully undamaged) for her to include in my next shipment (hopefully too she doesn't resell it to other walk-in customers).

agreed... the apache has always been my favourite chopper! damn ganas looking.

ah you dont have issue 1?

thats what ive been told too. and you're right on the choppers. resisting the urge to start collecting this, really have no space already

prob will look for issue #1 if i can find it and stop there for RM9.90 thats super value!

if still follow with UK version, Issue 9 & 10 not my target.
Skip...........

ya la, silly me. the guy at the bookstore i usually went to kept telling me issue #1 only rm9.90 wor. and i said i want my fac (no new issues for two whole months), not start a new collection. a trip to allscript changed all that...

and yes, 1:72 choppers seriously eat up your display space in no time. at max i can fit in five choppers on a billy bookcase shelf (it's a little better if there are no doors. you can let the rotors protrude out that way). but got myself a couple of detolfs already... just need to find the time to assemble them.

my guess is you american-ised also? the lynx (issue #9) features prominently in the fleet air arm of the british royal navy wor...
