Western Super Mare Helidays, sea-front, 1994 - the Army turn up with a Scout, a Sioux and a Skeeter. Come departure time, the Scout lifts off and powers over the eight-foot fence, Sioux lumbers off the ground, tips gently forward and sand-blasts the donkey-riders, and the Skeeter turns round and goes right into the opposite corner of the compound, nosewheel brushing the daisies. Then, carefully pointing to give itself the longest possible run-up, it puts its nosewheel ON the ground and heads across the grass. Approaching the fence, translational lift kicks in and UP she sails over the fence. Very entertaining. Made the R-22s look like Twin Squirrels by comparison.
Warm day but only 1 POB.
