Unfortunately this is a sad reason to bump an old thread, but Tom Friedkin died recently. He was 81. Gulf States Toyota founder Thomas Friedkin dies - Houston Chronicle

I didn't realise he even has a Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_H._Friedkin

Hmm, surprised nobody has picked up on the this one! Proper Helicopter for filming as the pilot is out of the way and the cameraman can be either side.

However, I am biased as I once owned and flew this model(not this particular one).
