Icing Photos
Hi all,
Wondering if anyone has captured any photo's of helo's with ice accumulated on them. I have several but need a few more for a project I am working on. Any type or quality would be great.

Air Methods in Englewood, Colorado used to have a real doozy...Nebraska based Bell 222...night flight...very dark part of the country....encountered a bit of ice....like several inches of it all over the aircraft....heart stopping photo actually. I think the pilot concerned is still there as a Training Captain...Company Check Airman.

The National Research Council of Canada did extensive testing of helicopter icing using an ice generator (or whatever it was called).
You might try contacting them - try Google.

bb in ca, what are the types in the pics, and where did you get the third one from?
Hey sycamore,
Sorry, I guess I could have described them better.
The first one is a Eurocopter AS-350B on the ramp one chilly morning not long ago.
The second one I believe is Cougar Helicopters Super Puma from the East Coast of Canada.
The third one I don't know much about but when I found it the description said it was a Gazelle.
Best Regards,
