helicopter recognition

Can anyone recommend a book, chart or website than can help with helicopter recognition? I've looked for Jane's Pocket Book of Helicopters but I can only find ones from 1981 which would appear to be as much use as a chocolate fireguard.

Probably the best helicopter information site on the internet.

Shephards Press produce a couple of decent wallcharts for civil and military types in service. Fairly pricey, but you can often pick them up for free at the major shows.

For BritMil you only have to delete Wessex/insert Merlin. The rest of the fleet still stands, and Apache was around at the time your Jane's was published.

(Probably will for a while, too)
