Aurora Sikorsky CH-54A Skycrane - Young Model Builders Club Issue, 1/72, 753

Plastic Model Kit,   Box Condition: VG++

Builder kit only, please read carefully. Dated 1972. Very highly detailed kit and well molded, typical of Aurora's last kits. Features full cockpit, opening cockpit doors, pilot and co-pilot figures, detailed engines and rotor assembly, rotating main and rear rotors and removable mobile hospital with opening ramp, plasma containers and cot. Although these kits were a huge improvement over the offerings from the 1950s, they were too late to save the company. NOTE: this kit has minor, neat assembly. The cockpit assembly has been neatly built. I have also included an unbuilt (but neatly painted) cockpit that is missing the control sticks, one pilot and a seat. There is no other assembly. NOTE: the pod is missing one #81 grab-on and one #75 tiny wheel. I have included a partially built pod that does include those parts.
