WWII Helis?

[Pong]

Well, I haven't found anything fun to do regarding profiling for the past month (Creating a couple, and then leaving them in my folders.) but I have heard of several helicopters during WWII and now I want to do something quite weird and I want to do a profile on a vintage heli.

Well enough talk, does anyone have lineart for a WWII chopper?

try this Flettner Fl 282 History

Here is one on the Sikorsky R-4 Sikorsky R-4 helicopter - development history, photos, technical data

I think that one and the Fl 282 were the only 2 that saw operational use in WW2.

If you need more on the the Fl-282 let me know.

There were quite a few Helos in WWII, actually.

A good number being operational by both Allies and Axis.

I hate to suggest Wiki, but the list they have is a real good one, and can be a great tool in finding the Helo you want to profile...

Thanks for the links. No luck so far on getting detailed schematics but I can probably make the panel lines myself using a couple of photographs and little Photoshop magic.

I have some of the Fi 282 from ther Luftwaffe Profile series. I'm traveling today/tomorrow, but I'll see if I can get them scanned for you this week.
