April Calendar?
Been away for a short while but now trying to update things. Cannot find the April Calendar. I presume due to a lack of suitable photographs submited?
This is a real shame the Calendar and Desktop background was a superb aspect of this pprune network.

Offering D-HELL R44 Raven II taken last year Austrian Heli
May I offer these for April Calendar if there isn't any offers on hand, please? I took them at Helidays in Gmunden Austria in September 2011. This striking red R-44 Raven II aptly registered D-HELL from Leipzig.
Cheers

tigerfish is right: no suitable photos! It is always nice to get pictures from Rotorheads, but for the calendar I really need images that are both interesting and show airborne 'action', as opposed to static ground/airfield stuff. In or out of the cockpit, but something that is going to be looked at for a month without getting bored! Plus a sharp hi-res image suitable for sizing and shaping to fit.
If there are any out there, I'm still open to getting either a late April or an early May calendar, but it is becoming more difficult to get the shots. Also I'm now back to motorbiking after an interesting 3 months as Chief Pilot on an S76 operation so I need a bit of help

C'mon Guys, I'm much too old now (67) to help, but this is is one of the best and most informative AND instructive mediums in the business today. One of its flagship elements has for a very long time been its calendar, and its wallpaper offshoot, and, for that we owe a great deal of gratitude to john Eacott. We cannot expect him to do it all,- but neither can we now simply just let it just die for lack of effort. You guys who are still blessed with the ability to fly every day, have the answer. - Tuck a small digital camera in the leg pocket of your flying suit, and bloody well use it! 99% of the product will be rubbish, we all understand that, but the odd 1% might be outstanding. Share it!

I've got a good action shot of the local Police 902 in the snow shot in Feb with a long lens if that is any good? Who to send the image to for consideration?
