From a dopey B777 driver who whilst waiting for his car to get serviced...sat in a coffee shop somewhere in the furnace of a ME summer, stumbled onto this thread (have always been a fling-wing wannabe but am too stoopid) I have to say WOW, what an amazing collection of images and experiences.
Thanks guys
Still waiting on the car.....

Back in the mid 1980's we had a huge swathe of Tasmania locked up as a 'Wilderness Area". After a year or two the Hydro Authority were getting nowhere in having another authority take responsibility for the huts and bridges that were there for bushwalkers, so we used a 206L1 to take in work crews to cut down the bridges, thus denying access to anyone to the area. Who won out of that fiasco?
Anyway, some magic flying down in the Gordon River

Skadi, grazie! 
Ah yes well, there's some history between the territories. For many-a-year the Austrians believed Italy was theirs and, for a time, certain parts were. These days things are a little different and we generally accept we have a few cousins across the borders, particularly southern Switzerland and Austria. 
Good video, but I spot a couple of Austrian birds in that video.

I should have written "Roman compilation" then, they have been almost everywhere in Europe

I'm with bleepup on this - biscuit tin on goggles was a little disconcerting - worse than the hole at Bessbrook. (Its not the hole in the photo attached above, the hole was about 50-100m behind the person taking the photo, past the buzzard shack.)
But I'll raise you one - any frigate or small RFA helideck in less than calm weather - imagine a biscuit tin moving in 3 dimensions!

I'd agree with Non PC Plod, but also raise him one as the helideck of SS Canberra (supposedly just big enough!) with a Chinook in moderate sea state. Sorry no pictures - too busy working!
