Rotorcraft is also working on decals for two Black Cat HMA8 aircraft that flew in 2011. Decals will be released for both XZ692 and XZ722. Release date will be around July. I had no intention acquiring an Airfix Lynx but after seeing these two Black Cats I am awfully tempted.

Rotorcraft has had a lot of help from Tony Cooke who is currently on the Operational and Evaluation Team for the new AW159 Wildcat. Tony has flown more than 4000 hrs on British Army Lynx’s.

Apologies about the legibility of the words on the images, but they were quite small to start off with.

For more information on the product above, please visit Rotorcraft at A2Zee Models. Information on the above products will appear very soon.

Please remember, when contacting retailers or manufacturers, to mention that you saw their products highlighted here - on AEROSCALE
