I know it is a model helicopter, but the landing just has to be watched

Not sure if the below will embed or what, but kudos to Peter and the team for doing such a good job raising money for a great charity.

Video 796 is a great example of how the COG changes with the swift departure of passengers in flight. Some large attitude changes involved.

Saw a RedBull snowboarding movie recently with great aerial footage, including good footage of the aircraft involved. 350's and a 109 (119?).

This is the YouTube trailer.

Wessex?

It's not a Wessex, it's a Sikorsky 58T.

The setup was a PT6-3 twin pac (installed flat) plus an angle gearbox. A later version had -6 engines.

Great rocket - tough, too. I flew them for years.
