The Comanche Vs. The Hulk
They were computer generated. Some of the differences in the movie was that
they added endplates to the horizontal stabilizer on the tail and there was no cant in the vertical fin. I am sure that they had to make the differences so it would not be and exact replica for security reasons. But none the less, the graphics were excellent and realistic as for what the comanche is supposed to be able to do. "Neil Fraser" wrote in message ... If that is an example of the crashworthiness then they should be very pilot freindly. Neil "Micbloo" wrote in message ... Since there's only one flying Comanche, S/N 95-0001, (DEM/VAL prototype #1, S/N 94-0327 has been retired, and is about to become a maintenance training device) as you say they're obviously computer generated. Thanks. Look forward to seeing the film....... I thought it was a lot of fun and enjoyed it. On another PR front, the Discovery Channel show on custom choppers built a Comanche chopper. THat sounds cool. I'll have to keep a heads up on that one. Gerard |

I remember the Testors model. Everything about it was wrong.

The fins are canted inward just like the Testors model. HaveBlue has the 117's origami shape, but without the little "beak" on the nose. The model looks just like a single-engine SR-71 to me. |

The horizontal stabilizer endplates are accurate. They were added about a
year ago. Dan Hollenbaugh Tim wrote in message ... They were computer generated.
