One of the more recent arrivals here in North America is the former G-BCLC, which I, and apparently a few others on here, started out washing and loading baggage on in Sumburgh in the 1970's, when she still had that new helicopter smell. I saw her regularly in Sumburgh until very recently. Anyway, she is now fighting fires for a living and hopefully enjoying her new life.





And now, just in time for the holidays, she is getting a facelift and a little weight reduction!









What do you think some of the oldtimers would ever have made of that!
