Having looked with envy at John's photos of the "rich life", I found some old shots of the steam driven Navy ;)
826NAS with a stream landing, HMS Eagle about October 1971 (checking the log book, I'm in 142 on 5 spot, with Chris Waite as P2! We were returning from a fly past at Sembawang, not sure what for?) http://www.helicopterservice.com.au/...nding%2002.jpg Fly One, HMS Eagle, around the same time. Looking at the sea surface, it would appear a calm day. Looks can be deceiving! http://www.helicopterservice.com.au/...20one%2002.jpg Painting the flight deck was a harmless way to get a bit of bronzy-bronzy: fine study of the Ship's Flight Wessex HAS1 :cool: http://www.helicopterservice.com.au/...ck%20paint.jpg |
A few vintage pics, at the request of HeloPilot. More from other places later. These came from a rummage through an old Canadian Forces PR file in Halifax. No idea where & when they were taken.
Piasecki HUP-3; the DA probably helps with the ability to lift more than a mail sack. http://img55.photobucket.com/albums/...UP-3_pic_2.jpg http://img55.photobucket.com/albums/...y/f473d8b1.jpg Somewhere a bit warmer, Miami? http://img55.photobucket.com/albums/...sy/RCN_H55.jpg H55 in the dip http://img55.photobucket.com/albums/...CN_H55_Dip.jpg |
This is at RAF Valley, Whirlwind 10 from the Search and Rescue Training Unit. This crevice near the base was used for training winchmen/operators. I'd bet they still use it, so if anyone finds a lens cap in there you know where to send it.

May Rotorheads Calendar Directly from Nicaragua!
Well no, I'm not really in Nicaragua, those of you who thought I might have been the lucky one to get locked up in a cell with 4 exotic dancers :)
That wasn't me :( Which brings me to the fact that the May calendar is ready and can be downloaded HERE! This has been one of my favorites, I hope you like it. Thanks to Flying Lawyer for the great picture! http://homepage.mac.com/helipilot/PP...ayCalendar.jpg |
From a photographic viewpoint, gorgeous photo. Beautiful lighting, nice movement in the blades. Great choice.

Ya, the colors came out pretty well on that shot, eh?
Nicely done. |

Well done BlenderPilot. :ok:
It's a beautiful photograph of a helicopter that will go down in history as a classic. BTW, when I dowloaded the photo I could see a bar at the bottom with details of the picture but when I set it as my desktop the bar disappeared. Do I need to change any settings? :confused: |
