Russian Helicopter in UK?

[LovelyCJ]

Hi

We're working on a film project that requires a Russian helicopter in the UK. Any ideas??

Thanks!!

You send for me the type helicopter you need plus how you want painted for film (civil, military etc.) plus for how long and I get you quote.

We have one complete Mi8T near, all in case you need to blow up for fun or
filming

Ask Boscombe Down?

There are several at the Helicopter Museum at Weston super Mare and they can probably find more at a price.

I believe there are some stored at Hawarden, Mil2 types?

Aces High (Mike Woodley) at Dunsfold has a non-flying Hind.

Thanks Guys for all the help. Sadly we need a flying example, does anyone know the state of the Hawarden examples and any contact details?

Cheers

No flying examples in UK I think.
The nearest will be Poland and Hungary military/civil depending what you want.

One ready Mi 8T with full civil papers for aerial work available in Slovak too

What about a Dauphin 365C?

They can be made to look quite Russian - PDG Helicopters have one thats still flying.

Once you have the finished film "in the can" please ensure you dub the rotor soundtrack with a Bell Jet ranger like most other "aviation" clips...or even better a R22

The last time I looked at the ones in Hawarden they were defo not Airworthy.
