B73: No sweat!

Re: Your friend from Air Haro;

My godfather looked after MAF's first two helicopters, G-BAKX (which was bought by Roy Flood of Castle Motors) and G-BFAL (the UK's first 206L now flying as G-OLDN). Regarding pilots .. short-sleeve order was rarely permitted, a couple of months during the summer (if I remember rightly) but .. when doing anything 'official' such as paying landing fees, boarding passengers etc. pilots were encouraged [read obliged] to don their uniform jackets with hat while carrying gloves in hand!

Hands in pockets (especially when cameras were about) .. was strictly 'verboten'!

If there is an Air Haro jock within the Rotorheads community then why for the love of God can't they post a little info on some of their 'non-sensitive' sorties along with a few shots of their craft including the 92 if they still manage it.
