Any Bristow's pilots know?

Heliport, I think you might be a little bit closer to the scene of the action than you imply !!!;)
By the way, what is she doing in the top photo? It looks likes she is texting her mother on her mobile............in 1962???

Word as I hear it....her daughter(s) are now in the cockpit of BHL 212's and 412's.

I think she is checking the pressure in the floats with a tyre pressure gauge.:)

"l pound 2 shilling for getting my gear off, l knew l should have taken the fixed-wing gig".

Welcome to the rotary world honey! :ok:

Compass Swing...Anyone?:)

"Want to prove you are a 'Real' helicopter pilot?"

Dam it,stripped off I,m still 96lbs so no chance of putting full fuel in,will have to swim the last leg!.I never could figure out this whizz wheel contraption.

I left my clothes just there, then that big, noisy thing arrived and blew them away!

.....Yea I know you said you would show me your big chopper if I showd you mine but.....

" Hang on, I am trying to get the sand out of IT!"

Just try to get as much sand off your feet before you jump in sweetheart........Oh and by the way, it might be an idea to wipe that pearl necklace off before I drop you home.

The three female pilots we have now are Trinidadian not related to the lady in the pictures.

None of them want pictures posted due to security. Many kidnappings down here.

They are lovely ladies and wery qualified.

This is the future of Helo aviation.

CRM is different and developing.

Pray do tell more of this need for pilots...terms & conditions and maybe an idea of the life of an offshore pilot in your neck of the woods.
