Guys

As I mentioned at the beginning of this thread, BlenderPilot is exceptionally busy at the moment. He still managed to find time to produce this month's calendar for us, but it was done in a hurry.
Please bear with us. Normal service will be resumed next month and we'll return to the usual high standard.

Close examination of my one remaining brain cell shows that I dinged the frangible tail end piece on XW895 while doing practice EOLs at EGDR.

I over-corrected in the landing-run, several times, and we came to a halt at 90 degrees to our original heading.

The tower hit the crash button on our behalf.......

Arrow July Calendar

Colourful Bell 407 in Mexico.

Another fine production by our multi-talented Carlos/BlenderPilot who this month not only created the calendar but also took the photograph.

This link might overload - hope to have another one up and running later today.

Wonderful picture - thanks Blender!

Whirly it didn't work for me earlier, but does now, so might be worth another try.

I hope you like the calendar!

The picture is not a composite, its just a happy pilot who followed my instructions and was happy to throw around his machine for the picture, as most pilots around here are.

I hope its working out for everyone.

This calendar is optimized for a 1024 x 768 pixel monitor resolution, if you have another resolution the picture may look jagged, if many of you are using a higher monitor resolution please let me know and I will make two versions so it will display properly.

Another cracking photo

We should not lose all these - has anyone given thought to a way they can be kept available or published in some way?

Blender, wonderful shot, much appreciated.

Yes I think all the shots are worth saving somehow. As a poster collage to sell in flight shops? Or perhaps re-issued with 2005 calendar dates, in the shops by Christmas?

I just feel that Rotorheads has a product here. The best heli shots of the year, approved by the worlds heli pilots. Or do we have to get our kit off, as in the film "Calendar Girls"??

Permanent road warrior down route and therefore computing in public a lot of the time.

Eye catching is an understatement. I've never had strangers asking about wallpaper before - great every month but outstanding for July. It's really hooked the non aviators.

Many thanks
Rob
