Finally, some Chopper Chat. The NHSL Op was replaced by NSOC-01 and the TTAG AW139s aren't mission ready.

[NorStar2K]

I hope TTAG's four AW139s fare better.

[hot blue]

AGREED^

How about using the RAF style roundel and keep the flag on the tailboom?

no way I will go and take it off there aircraft they are in no way similar to the raf and do not deserve our roundel

RC scale model of BCL's Bell 412EP 9Y-SKY

[pete]

How come they chose 9Y-SKY?

Big model though.. (Is this why 9Y-SKY is white now?)

[hot blue]

SKY is white because it was repainted in by the last operation it went to in Mexico.

[hot blue]

Goodbye to 9Y-EVS

Guys, I visited Trinidad on business last week and got my driver to take me to Cuevo and around POS. Have a couple of questions I hope you can answer.
9Y-TSP is no longer current on TTCAA list - do you know what happened to it?
I am trying to ties up serial numbers for the following:
9Y-TIN, O, P, R Cessna 188s
9Y-TGA, TGK, THZ Cessna 152s/172s
9Y-AG313 AW139

Would love to have got in to the GA hangar at POS with the Cessnas/PA-31/AA-5 parked outside - looked full of aircraft.

Thanks.

S-76C arrived today.

[pete]

norstar, we know that. It's in the US's regulations for flag display.

When the flag is affixed to the side of a vehicle (land, sea or air), it should be oriented so that the union is towards the front, as if the flag were streaming backwards from its hoist as the vehicle moves forward. Therefore, U.S. flag decals on the right sides of vehicles may appear to be "reversed", with the union to the observer's right instead of left as more commonly seen.

Not ours, but aye look the US doing it, we should do it too.

indeed.

Are y'all sure it's not a standard?

Look at the bristow chopper EVS above, same orientation of the flag on the right side of the aircraft.

S-76C arrived today.

Is it for Bristow
