Bristow Helicopter at the Exhibition Centre.

Receiving reports of a Bristow 332 or 225 landing at the Exhibition Centre in Aberdeen. I know Bristow are tight with money but the car boot sale isn't until tomorrow.

Like the last few years it's gone in for the oil barons ball which is tonight. Flown into a controlled and properly surveyed landing site with awaiting rampies and engineers to remove the blades, move it into the hall then reattach the blades.

Just thought I would interject some facts prior to any good stories, oh damn thats shot me in the foot I like reading wild stories.

Si

Hope they don't wake me too early in the morning when they depart.

Airborne at 12.34. Luckily being in the middle of an Aberdeen summer the cloudbase had lifted enough for it to fly to Aberdeen VFR.
