G-BFMY Onion Range June 15 1996

Whilst doing "Death by Onion" caught in Blizzard and had to shut down. Aircraft sunk into the peat and had to be dug out the following day.

Unst.


Unst hangar.

Wating for the next rotation.

Also waiting.

On the way to the Ninian, again!

B/Cal. used to drop in for fuel occasionally. The late Bob Rusk, another premature and tragic loss, is on his way to ground run the BHL. S61.

If you look closely, you will see RI is covered in cement dust. It was on the helideck when the cement/mud pipe burst. It took two days to get it cleaned and back on line.

Shut down for the night while shuttling in the mid nineties.
A little light icing. Piccie was taken 15 minutes after shutdown and 10 in the hangar!!

Bellboy or anyone else who might know.

How many 212s do Bristows still operate? Which are they and where?

Bristow 212s

As Far as I am aware there are three 212s still in Civy registration G-BFER and G-BALZ in Mauritania with G-BIXV in Kazakhstan.

Thanks bellboy. What about the overseas registered ones? Have they all been disposed of?

Here is an unusual one of G-BFER taken in Svalbard in 2004 apparently

T-t-o.
That looks like the hangar in Tari, worked there in 87/88 for BP with a 332 C model.
Cheers,
TC.
