tinpis,
No AL3, but a shot of the AS350 on floats: good for autos
Only B205 when I was there (Plymouth) was the Hevilift one on cross hire, with a gazillion dispensations to allow offshore pax flying on one engine with the lightweight floats. Hollow skid tubes

John E ta for the photos
You know I cant remember the 205s floats but I lean towards thinking it had em
Pilots I think were ex 'nam (pretty fresh!)
The AL3 drivers some were poms.
Hot refueling in a cow paddock just out of NP was fun.
