TFS

Prior to this season they were in the GOM, and they are going back as soon as the tour season is over. We'll probably get some new ones for the next tour season.

Ned,

No tours on the Mendenhall for us, we land on the Taku and the Norris glaciers. It's funny though, almost every flight someone asks if we are going to see the Mendenhall.

Cool August 2006 calendar

August’s calendar has a choice of either a Bell 206BIII JetRanger over Sydney, or an S76A+ from Spain. Click on the thumbnail image, and the full size photo will open to be available as your desktop image:





Heliharm sent this photo of an SAR S76A+ off Santaner, Cantabria:





Again, we are still looking for good hi res photos to be used as calendar backgrounds, please contact me via e mail [email protected] if you have something to be used. I need at least 1280 x 800 for widescreen, and 1024 x 768 for standard.

Thanks!
