Gazelle HA-PPY
Went over to the transit aircraft side of Heli Tech today and there was the Gazelle that has been the hot topic of this forum.
Now having seen it in all its glory it is quite easy to see what all the fuss is about. The aircraft is painted exactly the same type of yellow and black paint scheme as the various Police machines around the country.
The only difference is its a Gazelle but for anyone on the ground that saw it in the air, I would say they could certainly mistake it for a Police machine.
In my opinion the Police deserve to take a close look at it.

Wouldn't that make it the same colour as dozens of military training helicopters based at Shawbury. I seem to remember our local unit being quite pleased at local crooks running scared of lookalikes.
