I was in Wellington last Friday 25 January on another "you can't beat Wellington on a good day" day. The waterfront was humming with locals and tourists from 2 cruise ships that were in port.
And Helipro had a full complement of 3 helicopters at their Queens Wharf base. I always find that helicopters on the wharf are very photogenic, and even more so on such a great day.
Robinson R 44 ZK-HES headed off for a sight-seeing flight with a load of tourists...
Followed by Aerospatial AS 350D Squirrel ZK-HYD with another load of tourists...
While Kawasaki BK 117 A-3 ZK-HYE sat and in the sun and waited for the next emergency call. It didn't come while I was there.
Nice shots
ReplyDeleteTrying to find my pic's of heliPro's Sikorsky S-61R they had a few years back.
Rolled over in a River somewheres from memory.
