wow that is a good pic!

and its not a composite?

link has been edited, which is good.. :D

Wow... this picture is much more clear than last months. Excellent work!

I hope you like the calendar!

The picture is not a composite, its just a happy pilot who followed my instructions and was happy to throw around his machine for the picture, as most pilots around here are.

I hope its working out for everyone.

This calendar is optimized for a 1024 x 768 pixel monitor resolution, if you have another resolution the picture may look jagged, if many of you are using a higher monitor resolution please let me know and I will make two versions so it will display properly.

It's lovely!
:ok:

Another cracking photo :ok:

We should not lose all these - has anyone given thought to a way they can be kept available or published in some way?

Very nice, thank you Blender.

Blender, wonderful shot, much appreciated.

Yes I think all the shots are worth saving somehow. As a poster collage to sell in flight shops? Or perhaps re-issued with 2005 calendar dates, in the shops by Christmas?

I just feel that Rotorheads has a product here. The best heli shots of the year, approved by the worlds heli pilots. Or do we have to get our kit off, as in the film "Calendar Girls"??

A new Temsco B2 passed through town today. It was enroute to Alaska after being completed by Panterra Heli Support in Ontario Canada. They gave me a fly-by photo op on departure...

When NASA's Genesis Sample Return Capsule (SRC) returns to Earth on September 8, 2004, it will make a dramatic entrance that's more James Bond than Buck Rogers. Professional stunt pilots flying helicopters with special retrieval equipment will swoop in and swipe the solar wind samples Genesis has collected during its two-and-a-half year solar bath.

Recently, a Hollywood stunt pilot and his flight crew practised mid-air retrievals at the U.S. Army's Yuma Proving Ground. Two Genesis teams will get more stick time next week in Utah.

The real deal, with the pilots capturing solar wind samples, is scheduled for Sept. 8.



(As you've probably guessed, the script came with the photo - the words are not mine. :)

Heliport,

I thank you for making it clear that the choice of wording was not yours....to think that aerial task would warrant such a descriptive phrase as "stunt pilot" begs the imagination. In the world of utility helicopter flying....doing such things is more a matter of finding out what the client wants done, getting your friendly Federal man to grant you a waiver or other such dispensation. Heck...this would be no harder than banging your longline and bucket on on a buzzard's butt. ;)

Great Phot! Cool Livery:cool:
Thanks Blender

This picture was taken by Jack Jaworski on the Erawan platform, Gulf of Thailand. If you look close that's me smiling from the 61 :D
