38 BRAVO OF THE WHIRLYBIRDS MODEL BY LASSE LINDH REPAINT BY TOM HEAVERLO & JEFF JANKOVICS HERE THEY ARE FOR THE FIRST TIME THE TWO HELICOPTERS THAT MADE HISTORY 75B AND 38B COURTESY OF LASSE LINDH, OUR JEFF JANKOVICS & RC FRIENDS |
With the overwhelming reaction that was received
from the recreation of the Whirlybirds Bell 47 G
75 Bravo, (over 2,000 downloads) the repaint team of
Tom Heaverlo and Jeff Jankovics, knew that 38 Bravo,
would have to follow. Tom called on expert Swedish
aircraft sim designer, Lasse Lindh, to see if he would
be interested.
Lasse eagerly said he would, but may require some
background assistance.
Tom contacted his repaint partner, Jeff, who provided Lasse with drawings, pictures, and sound clips. The result of this 3 man "Team" effort has produced this beautiful looking, realistic sounding, and gracefully handling Bell 47 J helicopter model for MS Flight Sim. The model is currently being repainted by Tom and Jeff, to replicate 38B, as close as possible. COMPUTER SIMULATION AND R/C MODELS
From the "Whirlybirds"
television show that ran in the 1950's and '60's, helicopter N975B, or

pilot Chuck Martin. Textures for the skid model only!
