Fantastic pictures of a great aircraft. The reason the S-61 is still flying strong after so many years is a tribute to such a great design. It flies beautifully, has excellent flying characteristics and a superb cabin. I really hope that this upgrade proves successful and a few more 61 airframes get an extended life. Give me a Carson 61 instead of an S-92 any day.

I'm also pleased to see the analogue style guages displayed on a digital screen. I hate this modern trend towards moving tapes and linear scales !!

Long live the S-61
