Not a rotorhead myself, but during the OMV ADAC Rally in Trier/Germany last month this little bird flew past during the final safety sweep of SS5.

"I was roped in on the side of the heli and when I gave the thumbs up they unhooked me and I took a leap forward with a view that I have never seen in my 16 years of snowboarding, and probably will never see again.
I have to say it was the most exciting thing I have ever done in snowboarding. I was a little worried about the downdraft from the heli blades, but when I saw the landing my mind was clear and ready. From my view it looked about 50-60 feet. I hit the snow pretty hard and rode down the hill to have the heli pick me up asking if I wanted to do a second. Once was enough
.......
.......
Three weeks later I got the photos back. As soon as I saw the photo I started getting the shakes. I was more scared looking at the photo than I was doing it. The heli drop was supposed to be about 50 feet"

This 300C had its tailrotorblades striking the ground while in flare on a auto pratice causing the shaft to twist and disengage, then it took a 180° spin before it came to rest.

needed to be slingloaded for 2miles in no wind condition and the 206 had to be right on its limits to be able to lift it up

funny though it was the same pilot who flew the Huges and then picked it up ... yes its good manners to clean your mess up:}

October Calendar, Improved version HERE.
 
Yesterday I wasn't able to upload the calendar to my server for downloading so I emailed the caledar to Heliport so he could post it for me, BUT somewhere along the way the calendar got reduced from 1024 pixels to 576 pixels thus the original picture will look jagged on your monitors.

I was just able to upload the full size (1024 pixels) calendar to my server and here it is in high resolution, Right click on the image, and Set as Background,

Mac users . . . . you know what to do, as always ;)

Many thanks for the efforts of the group of you who set these up, and thanks again to Ned for the shot.

Did the surf ski driver manage to pass the lunch bag up to the crewman or not?
