Didn't the Spirit of Paris refer to the London Paris London speed record set up between Battersea and Issy in 1981? I recall being at Battersea for this and still have a large sticker duplicating the one on the S76.
The record didn't last long.....Aerospatiale beat it with a Dauphin within weeks!
That Dauphin is now in the Helicopter Museum but efforts to persuade Bristow or Sikorsky to give up a timex S -76a have so failed.
