Blender,

I have done an unofficial poll of some Rotorheads....we admire your helicopter photos....really we do. However, we as a group would like to see more photos of the hangar staff....really! We would love to see an equal number of photos of the hangar staff as we do helicopters....really! Please?

Sasless,
I will have to start pointing my camera elsewhere then in order to make fans happy, try to keep rotor blades and skids in the background, and focus on the hangar personnel then, that will be a little difficult because . . . . no it won't!

BigMike,
You have the Spanish, Bell time, all you need then is a LOT OF ENERGY!

I'm really glad you all liked the pictures of the helicopter!

no argurment on the ground clearance, when you get a snout, the isolation ring stacked up its getting close. we went as high as possible, doing our best to keep the gpu plug and pitot operational. always a tradeoff.
pm me, have some great shots of UMHD and MX-15's installed on same mount. i'd post them, just never figured out how.

This thread is totaly awesome. Discovered it by accident and I'm still here 5 hours later! I feel like trading in the A320 for something rotary.

Not French - but Portugese, that's what G-INFO says about G-DEFY

Based in Lisbon - got to go out there just to take a look!

Blender or others ,

What's the tail mounted camera gear on the 407 used for? It's obviously specialised stuff but what do they do with it?

cheers
