Chopper Squad, great stuff!
Could never understand though, just when Surf Rescue operations Down Under were recruiting commercial sponsors, why Grundy Television or the 0-10 Network didn't garner the support of the existing sponsors who, one would have thought, would have relished having their 'brand' splashed all over the series!
The record states that the series was filmed (or at least the helicopter base scenes) at, firstly, Dee Why Beach Surf Life Saving Club and later on at Palm Beach Surf Life Saving Club.
Had always wanted to fly a fixed-float-equipped 206 most especially because, unlike some of the 206's contemporaries, the JetRanger would actually land on its floats as opposed to a skid under the float and which must have made landings an interesting if somewhat 'bouncy' experience!

Yoyo: Great shots (as always). G-ASNL aka 'Arsenal' has debuted previously on the thread, specifically pages
20 and
26 the latter depicting the time she went swimming.
Geoff: Most interesting to see BHXU in this scheme and wonderful to see LRII in the snow in Sarajevo!
Zis: Sorry you didn't get more coverage of the 'Yugo' Gazelle but here's something to be going on with:
