Finally!! A dream job!

And I would fly it, regardless of the colour!

Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima and Erin Heatherton don super short LBD's to ride in bright pink Victoria's Secret helicopter | Mail Online

Does anyone know the pilot?

Meh, I'd rather have the fuel. Mind you, given the collective weight, it's probably not a lot of fuel.

Chopper from BTA...

Actually, That´s new colour for whole fleet in Bell Training Academy, FW,TX...they painted half of the fleet in that pink (206, 407, 427...), and they said will paint whole fleet.

Some old guys don´t agree

Yep, it is on fire contract for 5 months each year and then any kind of work...it will be on a lift job in 2 weeks.

Why? do you have some work for me?

Gordy, didn't I read somewhere that that 212 was a photoshop wind up? Looks pretty good though!

Taking a closer look at the 427's upper cowlings (below) I really must say .. "Bell, you've done a marvellous job, just beautiful! Not!"


Bell beauty: Bell's deisgn team went all out to design upper cowlings for the 427 which would accommodate inconspicuous inspection and access panels .. err .. yuh!

Griffo wrote .. I like curves ..
