Alongside the Labrador helicopter I showed you yesterday are a number of other helicopters. We start with the Bell HTL-6, a fairly familiar design.
Here we have the Sikorsky S-55, an early helicopter type that saw both military and civilian use.
The Sikorsky Sea King is a formidable helicopter, used both by the military and in a civilian variant.
Beautiful helicopters. I like the one that has transparent cockpit.
ReplyDeleteI have never ridden in a helicopter and I suspect that at this stage in my life I never will.

ReplyDeleteSeveral years ago, I rode in one that looks like the first one. It shook a bit but was an okay ride.
