has anyone EVER heard a Bell 47 referred to as a "Trooper" or a "Sioux?")
The British Army called their Bell 47 variants "Sioux".
The EC 145 should be called the "Bumble Bee". The UK's Met police ones look like one and sound like one and no-one can work out how they manage to stay airborne.
Scouts are quite cute
Thankfully for scouts everywhere, Whirls is a lady and not a scout leader.
Obviously there are a few grey areas, just wondering if there are any placid sounding military helicopter names out there (Eurocopter Fluffy Bunny? AW Cloud?)
Wessex, Belvedere and Gazelle. Terrible killers, those.
