While tarting up the batch of helicopters I got to thinking about the history of some of the toys. This Mi-8 ‘Hip’ (one of a trio) is a genuine Cold War veteran - bought ‘pre-loved’ in 1984, it has seen plenty of action. In games set everywhere from Norway to Lebanon, played in Dundee, Sheffield, Cambridge and Northamptonshire.
As PHW commented, “We are lucky we have these friends who have been with us in so many of our incarnations.” Wise words indeed.

And of course hips don’t lie.
Are you saying its time for a Hip replacement?
