VF,

A real "mans" helicopter - no plastic. It should be an SA315B - before the days of AS. Still holds the world altitude record 12,442 m in 1972!!

I think Switzerland ( ~ 20 still registered) and India are the last bastion of the Lama.

Look out for the Cheetal with the "fat" engine. Hopefully they get it up and running.
