Posted (this month) from the Land of the Long White Cloud, South Island touring division :cool:



The Rotorheads calendar for October comes from [email protected]. The Mk3A Sea King was photographed during a training exercise off Baggy Point in North Devon, UK.

Nice one.

Crab, do you pick up Sky TV with that Satellite dome on the back? ;)

Role 1a - yes a guest appearance, I do sometimes get to do my own flying!

Birddog - no, if we could get satellite, our lot would have it tuned to a porn channel!!!

John - thanks for hosting this one:ok:

Bit of a SAR theme recently? I think we should honour thse crabs for the recent rescues such as Canadian sailor.

Thanks for the work and what a stunning image of the old workhorse the Sea King:ok:

Nice photo - and good to see Crab's older brother making an appearance for a change (is that a bigger flying suit or has he lost weight?). ;)

Is that Mr T in the back?

If we could caption this image I would offer

"The crewman in the back had a few too many McVities before the flight resulting in a slight nose up pitch"
