I'm sorry for the delay, it's been hell (and heaven too) around here, presidential elections here tomorrow, lots of work to do. I made a post so that you Ladies and Gentlemen would send me pictures for the calendar but as it turns out I didn't get any, and since I forgot about it until Heliport kindly remided me, I just used what I had in my hard drive.

For the rank amateurs among us, what are the various helicopters in the pics? I'm guessing the top left green jobbie is a jetranger, but not too sure about the others...

Pandalet, the top left is green and black one, the bottom left is a red one. Top right is a white and yellow one and the bottom right is orange and grey!

Actually the bottom right one, is exactly the same colours as my Triumph Bonneville; they called the scheme Lucifer and Silver! Still orange and grey!!

I have to admit, I'm not good at identifying helicopters either especially from odd angles or where there's no indication of scale. I think the red one is a Long Ranger and the Lucifer/Silver is an A109. Might stick my neck out and suggest that the white/yellow one is a BK117?

Cheers

Bell 407, of course it is. I suppose the four blades is the cleverly hidden clue :ugh:

HEY, Don't let BlenderPilot hear you talking like that or he'll kick your a....OH, you are BlenderPilot! :}

I thought it was great with a real good use of different colours, especially the 109, nice paint job!!

I look forward to the next installment :ok:

Thanks Whirly and jetflite - allowed me to look all knowledgable and smug in front of co-workers, right up to the point where someone asked me how many of those I could actually fly...

ah, well...one day! :ok:

I'm sure you could fly all of them; you just don't have a type rating!

If it makes you feel better, I'm not type rated on any of them either:)
