Yes, the LongRanger was G-NEUF.

The pics were taken last summer. At that time, it was being operated by HeliAir at Wycombe for a private owner. I understand it was sold to Jensen Button and subsequently went to Scotland.

I wasn't given a key so maybe it was never found.

Ref the Sea King, what I'd like to know is what was the comment that someone wrote in the soot, that has been rubbed off for the photos?

Bellsux,

Must be pleased with the photo to post it on two threads, what were you doing up front, serving tea/coffee?

What was I doing up the front??? Having a pole of course! Then when it gets boring it's time to go back in the cabin watch a movie and dig into the bar and rack up a bill on the sat phone. It's all automatic and the only time it gets busy up front is when it is zooming through European airspace at mach 0.9, pilots get sore fingers from changing the frequencies. ( Hey... I don't do the tea and coffee, that's in your job description as a Bristows Coie Pohm1 )

We had a few of the CHC guys go up for a spin the other day but they never took advantage of the bar service.

congrats to Anders, great!
Q's. I guess that it's about sunup is it by the look of the bridge shot? would that be 5 am or so? and I don't understand at all the dynamics of people moving into the city centre, why-fore no motor cars on the big road?
