Lynx stubby skids?

Why the stubby skids on the Lynxs..Lynxi? surely they might be useful on land too..? Or do these bird never nest on land..?

a) They're not Royal Navy Lynxs, and b) it's not a Royal Navy ship

Couple more from Sumburgh.

I believe the S92 was on a ferry flight all the way from Texas to Denmark.


This one was in for fuel on it's way up to Faroe

December 2007 Rotorheads calendar

December’s calendar has a stunning shot of two RAF Chinook’s on approach to a naval vessel. I don’t have any details, nor a credit for the photographer, it was forwarded to me from a military site.
Anyone able to claim copyright please do so, I don’t want to offend the owner!

A wile back, a kid drowned I a river in Bykle County in Norway. The river had 20-meter deep hole whit enormous underwater currents. The local county decided to fill the hole whit big bags filed whit stones, to prevent more people from drowning. Scanaviation`s 350 was hired for the job.

Hi B.S

Yes, that is co-recto el mondo! i am a lucky man to work in a company that pays for to turbine helicopter type ratings plus salery, when I am below 700houres, and don’t forget, I had One before I started In Scanaviation also...it is not the worlds greatest pay, but I am still a low-timer so I am not complaining.
