I have the Alphasim Whirlwind, but probably not in the correct colour scheme for HMS Eagle in 1957 +, and I look forward to a good Wyvern.

Whirlwind HAR2 and Sycamore helicopters of the JEHU were operated. I seem to remember, from an old copy of Scale Aircraft Modelling that covered this conflict, that they were finished in an overall dark earth/dark green camo with large id letters - unfortunately my copy is long gone, maybe somebody else here has it?
