Hi Everyone,

Just had a new model sent to me by a friend who is in the USCG. New Ray has a model of the newest helicopter in the coast guard arensal, the Augsta. Forgot the number desgination of the aircraft. Anyway the USCG is leasing them and apparently only have about 8 of them in service.

I love the model, it is 1/43 scale but large enough for details and small enough to display. Standard colored CG helicopter and the detail is wonderful. The rotor blades turn and fold up, the wheels retract and the doors open (wonderful feature). The inside is also detailed with seats, buoys, seat belts, etc.

A very good aircraft model. Looked on Ebay and you can score them for between 10 and 20 bucks. Recommend it to helicopter guys, it is really nice and being a CG fan, love it!
