Good evening S'land..thanks for getting things moving, but not a Bell 47 (of any mark).

And my thanks to Mel as well...all I have to do is to remember to check the list (I see I was not the first to come up with the Piper Pocono!).

Does anyone else have a problem viewing my last image...I'm using Photobucket (after having failed miserably with Photobox and Picasa).

Just in case, I am repeating the image below:

Well done Evans B, its the Bell 54, alias the XH-15 (originally XR-15). Total of 3 built in response to a USAF requirement, but never went into production.

Over to you EvansB

chiglet is correct I would also accept Hughes 269A, U.S. Army TH-55 Osage, and Schweizer 300C. You have control.

Back to the drawing board....

Sorry chiglet, it just had that French look about it. Here is another Rotary Wing. I am sure this also will not last long.
