Helicopters

What in gods name lives in what appears to be the wheel housings for the back end? Still think the notion of mid air refuelling a heli was the work a nutter. Can you imagine the brain storming session?

So, we want to get to here without landing
but its too far chief, can’t we stop at Texaco and fill up?
No
how about drop tanks?
Nah, it’ll make the chopper look gash!
were stuck then chief
hang on, how about we stick a big tube of flammable av gas out the back of another aircraft and plug it into the front of the chopper right in front of the big whirly blades – that’ll work!
errrmmmm?!?!?

sea dragon as before

but its pulling a mine sweeping sled!

When I marry Emma82, she can buy this for me.

Lol. You lucked out elf. Any man I marry will have a no fly zone within a mile radius of me.

As promised:

Formation Merlin:

How many?

Give in to your inner secret desires.

You know you want to really…

Just think; we could have lots of baby helicopters! 🙂

Oh look how sweet they are!

(Is broody)

Someone’s left a Rubik’s cube on top of that Bell Huey Cobra.

I bet they’ll be right miffed when they can’t find it.

Is it wrong that the little knitted one makes me a teeny bit broody? There is something wrong with me…. I have girl friends now who have bought a RC helicopter too. They are taking over the world 🙁

See? I knew you’d come round eventually… 😉

You’ll be happier. Trust me.

Don’t start, my mum is knitting an entire farmyard by way of blackmail at the moment.

I hate to say it, emma92, but even I’m thinking of getting one, too!!

I can’t link proper cos I’m a pleb but I think this gives a flavour of how I feel about your comment Rachel. It’s also an appropriate response to you to Elfin 😛

Anyone got any pics of the massed approach at Wallop?

Chinooks are my fave. Did a long road ride in the Dales a few years ago, wasn’t great weather but by the end of the day 2 or 3 Chinooks were out training, classic sight.

Go on, give in, your urges are screaming from deep inside you…

The sooner you do, the sooner you can experience True Helicopter Joy.

You’re just in denial. It’s not good for you.

How about this whizzy beauty:
