Johnny Dioxin Posted March 13, 2016 Posted March 13, 2016 Hi Guys When looking at the model screenshots we have so far seen from Polychop, I have always felt that the fuselage shape didn't look quite as I had it in mind (bearing in mind I worked with, and have logged many passenger hours in them). Having just looked at some photos of the AH.1, I think it stands out even more. It seems to me that the Polychop Gazelle fuselage is much more curvy. It may well be a difference between versions (or my over-active imagination!). If you look lower down this page, you will see quite a few British military Gazelle photos: http://rickinghamphotography.co.uk/site/index.php/reports/9-airfields/23-mod-boscombe-down See how much less curved the rear section of the fuselage is? Whaddya think?

Johnny Dioxin Posted March 13, 2016 Author Posted March 13, 2016 Must be just from some angles. The part where the fuselage body joins the tail boom (starting from directly behind the passenger windows) looks more curvy and thinner from some angles than it does from others. I didn't think they had got it wrong - I thought at most a difference between 341 and 342, but probably not that either. Looks like it's just an optical thing.

If you look at a tapered surface from the large end to the small end and vice versa they appear different demensions. I read something about why once but I forgot. That's probably the case here, along with different lighting
