Great shots! Are they taken in Scotland as your location would suggest, or is this around the Aberdyfi estuary in Wales?

This one blew me away, here we were flying around NYC and I saw this. If anyone knows anything would be cool to know.

Nice pictures of the puma.

Looking at the rotor head shot those scissor link uprights look surprisingly small for the job.

Ned2air,

I'm assuming that the two add-ons beside the forward cabin are the ammo boxes. that's a lot of weight up front. would that drastically change CG once the ammo is depleted?

Nothing to do with Lotus.

Rufus,

You have guessed correct.

Do you still have a left nut? You'd better check and see, cause I'd certainly give my left nut to get a job like yours. :ok: Beautiful machine from any angle.

Trimstring,

I'll take a stab at the fields. The first one looks like Daytona and the second is Kissimmee. I grew up in Kissimmee and spent a bunch of time around that field!

Nice pics by the way!

That looks to me like South Devon, and judging by the two bridges in the first photgraph it's a place called 'Seaton'.

I actually did a project on that bridge back at school, it's the oldest concrete bridge in England. See....you didn't know that! :)
