WG30

Fondly remembered Sav ... cos IF the WG30 had been fitted with the later engines, my aviation career might have changed somewhat.

I attended Yeovil for an invited interview ... the idea being that as an aircraft sales person who had developed a reputation in the industry (trifle unfounded) for selling helicopters I would join the great company. They even put me up for a night at the local 'Three Choughs' hotel. However, I wrecked my chances of a job when I explained the type didn't have any kind of future with the old Gem 40s fitted. Of course the interview board shot me down well & truly, so I stayed with the Enstrom! Few regrets tho' mate! Dennis K.
