Great stuff guys....I only met a 204 once - my first overseas posting - leave relief to Ras Shukeir, Egypt, a long time ago. Avionics in those days consisted of a comm and ADF.
Now I work on 4-axis, twin GPS, Satcom, twin Navs, 5 multi-agency comms, NVG, FLIR, Nightsun.................and an ADF! At least we don't have to spend hundreds of man hours a month trying to keep HF comms useable anymore.

Some more pics from the web site....

The S76 collection.....

A variety of places, logos and colour schemes and at least one airframe no longer with us.
Note: the notes that are integral to the pictures may no longer be relative. They were just added to pics with the info I had to hand ten years ago.

Spent part of my apprenticeship on one of these aircraft and it wasn't the 76!
