That Bill A. in the right seat? Nice looking pannel on those 61's and I have to say I thought it was yawing right as well, damn eyes!

Very nice looking panel...now just need to get rid of the speed selects for dual channel FADEC.

from my latest adventure which involved picking up a new machine at Bell (not the rescue 427, the 407 shown below) and then some from work on the north coast of BC. enjoy!

Nice pic of Squamish. If I look closely I can see our house :)

Fun Police 24th Jun 2008 00:46

that's why i took the picture!!

drakkar 24th Jun 2008 01:55

Great pictures Fun Police

The owner of this 407 should have a great sense of humor. I just imagine the pilot showing this picture to his favorite girlfriend with this registration VIH which gives in other language HIV. :rolleyes:
Drakkar

Phil77 24th Jun 2008 02:31

Mind you "the owner" of that 407 is the oldest privatly owned helicopter company in canada with 85+ helicopters... I question why nobody came up with a better name during recent restructuring of the company? :ooh:

Similar to the story where Mitsubishi named their SUV - sold in parts of europe (I believe at least germany and uk) - "pajero" spanish for "w*nker" (or "mastubator")... good work on the research! :D

Fun Police 24th Jun 2008 11:57

drakkar, some of the kind folks at Bell (in quebec) did mention that to me and it is kind of funny. i wish that they had kept the original name (Vancouver Island Helicopters) but since their operation has expanded to encompass so much more than just VFR work on vancouver island, a name change was thought to be necessary.
having said that, they are a good outfit, with nice machinery, good maintenance and they pay me on time, so really i think i can deal with it :ok:.
cheers all.

What a beautiful cockpit on that Carson 61. They are really teaching that old dog some excellent new tricks.:ok:

Any of that ilk. I am amazed by Carson's imagination.

The shots from Greenland is along the east coast.
The turbine farm is "Horns Rev" and is located off the Danish west coast.

John I think you got the Abramovitch yacht there. He's got a EC135 EC155 and a EC145. Theyare all registered P4 if my memory serves me correct.

John Eacott 2nd Jul 2008 22:23

BS,

Close, but I think this one's a tad smaller than Pelorus. Photo for comparison :cool:

JE that yacht off Portofino I think it may be a fellow ppruner Giovanni Cento Nove but i have not seen him about here in a long time and may well have moved on from that gig by now.
