BO105
HNY and hope you all had a good crimbo:

Laughingly or not the first helicopter I sat in as a kid was an RNethAF BO105 at Mildenhall Air Fete 1991-, several years later I started my aviation career on year out albeit year out then Post uni graduate working with BO194 maintenance.

Here are my photos in 2000 after Mission role for to one of Glasgow‘s based BAS ones











I also dealt with a bunch of Durch guys who were flogging off their air force BO105 fleet and spares. So they had an aptlt named website www.bo105.com and this was the 2003-2005 timeline.


Then decade later at RIAT I saw the last of the Heeresflieger BO105 painted in special colors heading to the types retirement so here are my photos from static at Fairford.






cheers
