May I ask what the devices are inboard of each Master Caution panel, in front of both pilot positions; it looks like a light but most likely not. ???

IHL -

Those are small video cameras. They help greatly in engine software development tests when you're trying catch transient wierdness. We have four of these very small cameras that we can put anywhere, inside or out. Recorded to a harddisk for later viewing.

Gentlemen,

these pictures may be every day work to you guys, but what good shots! along with the short explanations they really do show the varied work that is acheived by using Helicopters.


Phil K , one of your shots show what looks like steam or smoke, what is happening in that picture?

Many regards to all of you.

Great pictures guys.

Please add a few words to your pics - if only helicopter type and location.

I regularly get e-mails/PMs asking me to get people to do that - it adds to the interest.

Keep 'em coming.

Totally agree - an impressive collection of pics already. Good idea Peter.

------------------

I get regular e-mails/PMs asking me to get people to do that on the Rotorheads Around the World thread, and have had a couple about this thread.

Great pictures guys.
Keep 'em coming.

Just to prove that those bendy rotor blade shots aren't just a product of these newfangled digital cameras, here's a scanned photo of a Hughes 300 - this photo is about 30 years old:
