I know we've had Haifa before (it might even have been your good self, Asturianu?). Could it be that shunned-by-the-great-and-good and by-the-Med heliport?

I did Haifa as I flew offshore from there.
It would therefore fit the Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
But it is not heli’s only.

My goodness this is taking a lot longer than I thought - none of the above but there ARE a lot of Med heliports - even for the great unwashed

Not that expensive, Mrs C and I did a 4 night break there including helicopter transfers from Nice and it was only about £700.

This paint scheme has been used on a few AW 139 aircraft.
For instance Wiking and Copterline aircraft but also EC-MUN in Ceuta Spain

Not quite 24 hours but I have a meeting this morning .... Bear has it with Ceuta - another of the Spanish enclaves in N Africa

You mean that one that's contained within Morocco and which the Spanish conveniently forget about?:=

Asturias56 12th Aug 2021 08:42

You mean the ones carved out of Morocco by the departing colonial power about 80 years ago??

never heard of them..................................... :cool:

I think Bear, that you should in future be addressed as 'Banksy' when you are let loose with a paint brush on this thread...

Beamr has it with Lille.

(I didn’t fly, on my vacation car trip we needed to get an antigen test for my kids on a Sunday and Lille is convenient close to the highway)

Beamr 13th Aug 2021 09:51

Wow, I recognized something in this thread!

Why thank you, one must try. Yet I believe that it still is very recognizable for its distinctive features.
