Helicopter landed at work!

(1/5) > >>

cmdrfire:
I work near an MOD base so helicopters flying by aren't really unusual. However from our laboratory I could hear one hovering and thought it was setting down in a field next to us... wrong, it set down on our test track!  :surprised:
Was carrying a visitor to our facility.

Luckily I had my camera with me and moseyed down to take some pics. The helo is an Augusta 109C, apparently.



These pitot tubes seem very insectile.


Paint was this cool blue metallic colour.


More insect-ish features.


Useful maps wedged in the cockpit


Pilot let me have a good look 'round.




And then he flew away, taking the visitors from whence they came :P

Really ace set of pics, Neo  :congrats: :congrats: :congrats: :congrats:

Extremely insectile (great word!)  :happy2:

No where near as good pics but my room was shook to bits the other night, looked out my window to find that bad boy!  :evilgrin:

@ Mike:
First pic is great - Lots of atmosphere - Forget the others IMO  :happy2:

[btw, DS2500s sold subject to payment - Thx for your interest]
