PPheli has the helicopter, but the moving map should help with the location

Just landed from filming for an American commercial shoot.
I was flying from the left, so the safety pilot took a few photos.
Shame he had the shakes

Mr Selfish asked:
How do I post some photos?
First of all, the picture needs to be already on a website, because the pictures here are not on the PPrune server but are all linked to other sites.

to make the picture viewable here, you put [img] at the beginning of the full web address of the picture, and [/img] at the end. hopefully you should then see:


If you see a picture that you'd like to link to, right click on it, go to properties and that will show you the address.

If you have some pictures of your own that you'd like to get on the web, then try a site like Photobucket

Well done you great set of guy's, when I can fathom out this book of words on posting a pic I will send one, till then , thanks a lot what interesting pictures you have all sent, trouble is I am green with envy at the Kit and locations of some of these pictures,

To me and no doubt other PPL(H)'s they are every bit as interesting as looking at the Helis in working flight,

Please keep posting em

can anyone guess the location in the UK?

Hi Dave,

If I'm not mistaken it is High Wycombe / M40. I attended the school in the top RHS - a long time ago.

I could tell you some stories but they are not really appropriate for a public forum ;-)

Very nice pics... Thank for sharing them with us.

Can someone please tell me what the helicopter is in ic 27 (The big yellow and black S&R one!!) - I'm guessing at some sort of super puma but in reality I haven't got a clue!

Thanks!

Grob Driver,

It's a Super Puma L2 owned by Bristow Helicopters callsign G-JSAR. It was used for the original Jigsaw Offshore SAR Trial and is now providing Search and Rescue cover for the Oil Companies in the Dutch sector of the North Sea operating out of Den Helder.

I saw it there too.

PR,

Thanks for posting the pics.

407 Driver, I see you've been careless with the seatbelt.

John E, the tanker pic looks familiar. That could easily be the GOM.

Gomer,

The GoM photo : someone's photo that I hosted: not mine, I hasten to add!

Funny about the seat belt rash, amazing how prevalent it is on Bell's

Upon looking again at the posted cockpit views, the one posted by "Aesir" would to me seem to be the most inhospitable place to have to have a problem, in fact it is an amazing picture of natural desolation.
