Great shots of the 'Diff Lightning Boy, currently away from home and really enjoyed seeing them . That new EC135 looks great close up too.

Cheers, BM

Looks good Aaron.

I still want to get up there and get some photos.

'Till then, they have been flying the 205++ lately.....







And some shots of the 500D that was visiting a while ago.

Oh yeah. It's a beautiful bird, and I have been waiting for them to bring it out and start flying all winter.

I thought it was an 'E' at first as well, until I talked to the pilot.

As Gordy has pulled up, it's a 'D', but they put a different windscreen on it. I can't remember the name of the company.

Sounds like you get to fly some nice ones up there in Wa. I am looking forward to moving up in the future, I just got my Com. cert. 10 days ago, so I still have some time to go.

Gordy,

I stand corrected. I thought it was a 500, not a 369. I am surprised, it looks to be in fantastic shape, and it is older than I am.

I cannot remember the name of the company either--but they are Southern CA somewhere. I flew a C model with the V tail and the pointed E nose back in the early 90's at HAI. I have a pic somewhere--will dig it out if I can find it

The D....shape of the small vertical stabs on the top of the T tail give it away
