I was unable to find any suitable Royal Marines decals so have had to resort to nicking some Army decals from the Airfix Lynx kit.

Technically this is not a problem as all the 3BAS a/c were maintained by the REME and owned by the Army not the Fleet Air Arm.

Chopper jokes aside, this is a terrific model Splash. You're definitely the coptermeister on this forum 8-)
