S-3 Viking

[piginapoke]

I would also like the Viking model.
Always liked the aircraft.

PM me your email addy's, and I'll send you the model, unless it would be OK to upload to the download section. Nobi?

I missed the S3 viking so if anybody finds it do please let me know... again thanks NOBI...

I "worked" on S-3s while I was at VX-1 (Patuxent River, MD). I never got too familiar with it because I was afraid that NEC would stick to me and I'd be carrier bound when it came time for me to rotate back to sea duty. I'm a rotary wing kind of guy, smaller flight deck, and only one aircraft at a time could kill me (and I was either looking at it, on it, or in it).

That being said, I would very much like to build one. I'll keep my eye on this thread in hopes that it will be made available.
(we had 2 ES-3A's too, those avionics cooling fans were louder than the engines!)

I have the S-3 files, and have received permission from Nobi to host them here. After I clarify one thing, I will have them uploaded in the downloads section.

I merged my copies into 1 pdf file, makes life a lot easier. Maybe do the same before posting? (with his permission of course)

For S-3 fans, there was a 1:33 version by Fly Models years ago. Might still be a few around on eBay or some of the online dealers that sell old models. Not free and not 1:72 like Nobi's but I thought it might be of interest.

There are also 3 versions of the Viking in scale 1/300 (sigh) in post 2569 of the thread "one model per (non-working) day". Not that I want to compete with anyone. certainly not at this scale.

The more the merrier. I was just looking for Nobi's one specifically. Just something I like about that plane.

Will check yours out, thanks for the heads up.
