A couple of days ago I posted photos of the Skywork Helicopters Twin Squirrel ZK-HZZ7 at Kaipara Flats, and I also delved back into the blog to find photos of ZK-HZZ the sixth and ZK-HZZ the fifth which were also Skywork Helicopters Squirrels and all painted in the same bright colour scheme.
I also posited that this could be confusing for helicopter spotters
Now thanks to Richard Currie I can confirm that it didn't stop there, but went back through ZK-HZZ the fourth, ZK-HZZ the third and ZK-HZZ the second all the way back to to 1999 - all Skywork Helicopters Squirrels and as far as I know all painted the same!
Here is the list:
HZZ/2 AS350D 1382 Feb 99 > Apr 02
HZZ/3 AS350BA 1821 Dec 02 > Aug 03
HZZ/4 AS350B3 3239 Sept 03 > Aug 05
HZZ/5 AS355N 5740 Feb 06 > Oct 08
HZZ/6 AS350B3 3780 Nov 09 > Jan 13
HZZ/7 AS355N 5691 Feb 13 & current
Now that is really confusing for helicopter spotters!
Thanks for the info Richard.
