Heli Ops Posted January 19, 2004 Report Posted January 19, 2004 Couple of pics from the fires we were working on in Terrey Hills, Australia. Have more if anyone wants to see them. Quote
407 Driver Posted January 19, 2004 Report Posted January 19, 2004 Ned, I thought that you said no-one longlined in kangaroo-land ???? Note the distance between the bucket and the aircraft ! They are good pictures Bandaid, but ...of course, in your profession, you think this is a good pic too !! Quote
Heli Ops Posted January 19, 2004 Author Report Posted January 19, 2004 407Driver - Not me that said they dont long line. Most of the guys I have worked with have longlines, or belly tanks. Is Bandaid a Police pilot, sorry if he was that should have been a pic of Dunkin Donuts Heli Ops Quote
Heli Ops Posted January 20, 2004 Author Report Posted January 20, 2004 Mag Squeal - Actually Garret had just taken off from refuelling and I got him to hold the hover for a min while I got the upwardly looking shot. The best shots were actually flying along with Andy in the left seat of the BK while we were dropping. Got some great shots looking down ont he bucket as well as across the cockpit. Garrett actually spends time flying in Canada during the fire season. I first ran into him in Bali a couple of years ago where he was flying a 500D. His last name is Cloette (might be wrong with spelling). Heli Ops :prop: Quote
407 Driver Posted January 20, 2004 Report Posted January 20, 2004 BandAid is a couch-pilot. He has several thousand hours of lay-Z-boy time. Quote
