Hi Team.....heres some Helios from wings and wheels day.


















I'll post some of the jet ranger that was there also.

Nice shots, they are airliner.net worthy I reckon!

Thanks Trolly

Seems ya had a heli off a good time funny is was lookin past the Choppers at the scenery behind , Great shots Matey

Sweet Nik, love the BK117, you should consider uploading one or two to A.net

Woo that 2nd last one is a real action goodie.
Just curious, I thought there was a fluff on my screen, but no! it's on the pic - are they scanned prints?

Also, the Squirrel is soo close to the Milford one (just a colour swap) I feel a paint coming on. You wouldn't mayhap have a closeup of the engine cowling artwork??

Not scanned......updraft from heli?? grass??? which photo???

Nothing further of the AS350.......it was parked miles away........50m away from rope.........Wasn't really the best airshow for pics......everything roped off........Sorry boss

Pity...easy paint in the making

This shot:


I am a compulsive doodler when on the phone, so I've doodled away the fluff - between tailboom and rotor on the original.
Also what looks like negative scratches several places.
Might just be lens dirt?

See what you're talking about there boss.......that's uprush. , those ain't scratches they're grass etc....

Man those R-22 look strong and safe

If that was sarcasm, you should check out the Schweizer 269, of which there are numerous examples at Ardmore. (the ugly things that Ardmore Helicopters have)

Yep it was

And I to have seen those things out at Ardmore howiever they really shouldn't really be flying more like they should make coke cans out of them

Its interesting because I think that the H300 is quite a daunting ship compaired to the R22, Ive flown both, while the 300 is slightly easier to fly, the R22 is the better training machine. You can actually use the 300 for more things because the 3 blade system makes it more stable when you have loads on board. The R22 can barely be used with a sling load. Choppers definatly require more skill to fly than fixed wing.
