Thanks everyone.

A true CBK perhaps?
Dazzled, yes I think CBK does describe it very well, it also has world wide appeal due to the Apollo connection. If Airfix decide to re-tool perhaps they should include the SH-3D as one of the versions.

I agree its an iconic looking a/c in White and Grey with all those colourful markings and the big black 66.
