Few shots from yesterday, MUST finish the cockpit and put pilot in it lol.

Vario AS350, 8 foot long, 23 kg wet, Jakadofsky pro 5000 turbine.

Looks fantastic...I bet you could do some serious damage with that size machine.

nightflyr · 07-23-2014, 05:02 AM

heli143 · 07-23-2014, 05:23 AM

BEAUTIFUL!!!

looking forward to seeing it once completely done

Stabes70 · 07-23-2014, 08:47 AM

Speechless.. Absolutely superb

satsuma · 07-23-2014, 12:44 PM

Thanks guy's .

Sats, as always you and your skills have always been an inspiration to me and my model building. Your AS350 is a true beauty!

Keyrigger · 07-23-2014, 02:39 PM

It does look kind of empty in the cockpit. Get 'er done. My poor little 50 size would almost be swallowed by the main body area of yours. The interior should look just as great as the exterior. Take care.

Thanks Dale, will look finished when cockpit gets installed, the seats are done, the instrument panel AND centre console are done minus the instrument insertion, just need to fit the textured flooring, then all can get bonded/bolted down and pilot in seat lol.
In the middle of painting my 700 size AS350 ALSO at the moment lol lol, so it all takes time hehehe.

Yes mate it does I'm afraid, won't be long though until it has an office lol lol
But I do tend to test them in an incomplete state as MOST of us do.

Thank you

Photo of it in primer then paint.

Many thanks go to John White, Vario UK, and Kirsten ( Owner of Vario Germany ) for the time and effort involved in the development of the new exhaust system, without these people's help, my AS350 would have been converted to electric and not the turbine version you see here.

Well done Ian! The Pilots and team here at Heli-Serv are all very impressed by the likeness to our Squirrel.
