Just heads up...

'Blue Thunder' is on Channel 5 this sat (15th) afternoon

'Crude Brittania - the story of north sea oil' - is on BBC4 tues night. This Was shown a few months ago. Very interesting and lots of helicopter footage of the north sea.

Caught the end of an interesting Helicopter documentary on Quest Channel. The title of the program was Massive Machines and they looked at the Mi 26 in some detail, what a beast! It is going to be repeated next Saturday if anyone is interested http://www.questtv.co.uk/TV_Listings/21/08/201 (http://www.questtv.co.uk/TV_Listings/21/08/2010).

I'm guessing the bit in H269 was filmed at Liverpool? Can anyone confirm that?

The same - very genuine chap. Not only knowledgeable but extremely helpful to boot. A true helo enthusiast, although unable to post regularly on Rotorheads these days.
