We have had a B3 visiting the base for the past few days....

Towing an 800 lb "bird" in the mountains takes the power of a B3, as some of the survey lines may go 3000' vertical up to 9,000'

Swapping 212's today ...AHB inbound

AHC outbound..

Not a Helicopter, but the next best thing, the DeHavilland DH-5 Buffalo...
