A very special thanks to BlenderPilot for finding the time to do the calendar for us this month. Thanks Carlos - I know you're very busy at work at the moment.

Heliport,
Great shot: the first link appears corrupted and won't download properly, and the shot itself seems a bit pixilated. Is it the original 800 x 600 blown up? Ned should be able to supply a higher res shot to fill the screen

Out of interest....is the cable attached to the Cargo Hook or a hard point under your machine.
If it is the Cargo Hook, what checks, procedures etc do you use to ensure accidental or electrical failure uncommanded release.
Just interested, as the concept is great.
