sexy machines
Gotta admit, that Bell errrr........AB139 looks FINE!
However, can anyone else see the "lines" of an S76 in the fuselage?
But I may be biased, presently flying the 76!
Nothing sexier than the KEVLAR KIDDY KAR!!!! ( other than Nicole Kidman..........errr Nick.....errr Nicole.............!!!!!

I can't believe no-one's said the JetRanger yet.
To be fair, the best aspect I ever had on one was when I was sitting in it in the hover, the August sun behind us and our shadow in front. I suppose anything would look good in those circumstances.

Bell 222 and the A 109 are the best looking ships!!!
And the best is: They are also beloved by the maintenance personal, because the ships are the best insurance against unemployment.
Both beautys are better on design and flying characteristics than on maintenance status.
OK: That's also the best , because if the ships are grounded, pilots could have a beer and a funny (mostly longer) time.
Really the best !
Two helicopters like we love it: sharp design, good to fly, jobs for our companions!
At last: the passengers are really in love with the interior.

Depends on what we are going to do with it. If I'm going to spray with it:
1st- a Lama
2nd- OH-58
3rd- Huey
If we are talking cross country, show it off to the girls:
1st- S76
2nd- 430
3rd- 407
Iknow, I know, but I'm just a cropduster.

The BO105 on low skids looks, well, low. But on high skids it looks fantastic! Like a giant prehistoric insect poised to attack...
Most helicopters look better on high skids than on low skids. The JetRanger, on low skids, looks like it's had a hard landing.
The Hughes 500 on low skids is just wrong... like a Porsche on shopping cart wheels.

Are you all mad? The MD902? It’s a flying Transit van
StevieTerrier
Which bits of the 902 are the “excellent mechanical“ ones?
Now the best looking……and probably the best ride
The 365N………..the Cameron Diaz of helicopters

The old fart checks in.
I’m staring at models of the Sikorsky HH-3, the Seaking, the CH-47 the Hughes 500-E, the Bell 412 the R-22 and the Sikorsky HO3-S (In Coast Guard colors-International Yellow) and the HO3-S (S-51)wins hands down.

Best looking aircraft designs...
1. Got to be S76 with a picture of a reclining nude woman on the side. This was on a poster back in the '80s. Her curves really blended in well...
2. Bell 222/230/430
Best paint job making the aircraft look attractive...
1. Pegasus, the BK-117 that had the winged horse painted on its side.
2. The Mil-24 that had the hawk painted on the side.
3. Niagra Heli's 412's with all of the colors of the rainbow painted over a silver base.

C'mon guys & gals
Everybody knows the sexiest and meanest machine by far is sadly no longer with us.
A tragedy at Farnborough 1974 that I'd rather forget took it and it's two pilots from us.
The S-67 Blackhawk still is absolutely TOPS.
Wunper
PS next sexiest is the Cobra prototype with the nifty retractable skid gear and the curved canopy
