It's an Aerotécnica AC-12.

Wiki details here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerotécnica_AC-12).

It's sort of half Alouette II, half H500 and half Mi 2, kind of thing...

Really? It doesn't look like a half of any of them. May be bits of each of them and half a Sycamore.

IMHO:

Cabin and undercarriage - half an Al II
Rear fus and tailboom - half an H500
Engine installation, M/R, tail pylon and T/R - half an Mi-2

I can see where the Sycamore comes in.

Proportions are approximate... so three halves make a whole - or so...

Looks like a Cyberman related vehicle.

Those seats look rather uncomfortable...

Especially if you get an O-360 dumped in your lap.
