Airmail: Look forward to any photos you may dig up.
O'Leary: Welcome aboard. As you've seen, there isn't much by way of North American nostalgia on the thread and that's because there's simply too much of it! I do plan however to cover aspects of North American rotary-wing history but .. not here and not now.
However, we have showcased a few Canadian aircraft across the pages including those photographed by Steve Aubury some of which you can see on page
71 and which includes the 'Ed Darvill Helicopters' Gazelle C-FEDG.
A couple more here beginning with this early 70s' CCG Bell 206 and which photo I absolutely love. (Note the paddles tucked into the top of the floats):
