I work in a small motorcycle workshop. So that it doesn't get boring, we organize an event from time to time. Every year there is the "Chopper Day". Except for the last 2 years, you know why. But hopefully it will be that time again in 2023. I love my job!
The last shot from the plane graveyard... had to crop this a bit as it seems i have lost all ability to clone... as both chris' were in shot allong with their cameras.

Captain Cook discovered a safe haven at what he called Dusky Bay and had his astronomer carefully determine its location by the stars so other ships could find it. Only problem, apart from sandflies, is that in 250 years no one has ever built a road to it. In this photo you can see the terrain inland from Dusky. We travelled 6 days by boat to get in but "as the crow flies" after 30-40 minutes we were back at civilization.

The frigid waters of Pengo Bay, overlooked by the looming glacial cliffs of Aptenodytes, are the frequent site of shipwrecks and marooned seafarers. Emergency water rescue duties are handled by the civillian RockHopper Rescue Chopper.
The helicopter features dual wide-opening doors, a winch system with a rescue basket, a spotlight for locating lost arctic researchers (among others), a two-man (or penguin) flight cockpit, and a main cabin with room for four crewmen (or women) and an occupied gurney.
Built in support of General Frost of the Penguin Empire for DA4.
This chopper came just low enough for a quick shot, then flew off into the distance. He had a nice morning for a flight, the sky was clear...Sadly, it didnt last and the rain returned later in the day !
