A year ago I put together this little something to see if it was possible to build a LEGO chopper I actually liked. The tail boom goes from two to one wide and the sides are SNOT, built around the frame as they are in real helicopters. At this scale it was somewhat flimsy and fragile, and in the end it was not altogether what I wanted to achieve, but I am posting it in case someone finds it useful.
not too happy with the rotor blades but its all i could think of! weather was dull for photos today so i will post better pics later.

Last year we treated ourselves to a "heli hike". We flew into the middle of the Kaweka and walked back to the hanger at Poronui over the following 6 days.
It took around 15 minutes to cover what would take a determined tramper 2-3 days to walk. Its always a thrill to travel by chopper.

Not a great day out for Locomotive Services Limited's Standard Class 7 70000 "Britannia" after it failed at Carlisle and had to be taken off the return leg of Saphos Trains' "The Fellsman". Reportedly suffering an overheated big end bearing, the Brit required a tow back to base.
LSL's Class 20, 20107 (D8107) on standby / Thunderbird duties at Appleby for the Staycation Express was therefore despatched as 0Z20 to Carlisle.
It then hauled the stricken steamer on a late path (also 0Z20) back to Crewe DMD at a max speed of 50 mph due to Britannia's predicament.
Fortunately the move made better progress than the path suggested and the unusual combination passed through Hartford 138 Early - 10 minutes before the station lights went out.

The British Railways 'Chopper' 20020 was released into traffic in 1959 from Robert Stephenson & Hawthorn at Darlington under her original pre-TOPS number D8020 and spent a lot of her working career in Scotland. One of 228 constructed and nicknamed 'Choppers' built between 1957 & 1968.
Taken-in-Hand by the Scottish Railway Preservation Society (SRPS) for future preservation back in 1992 and occasionally still used today for their timetabled services
20031 pictured at Ingrow on the Keighley and Worth Valley railway, with a horse not really interested in the class 20s presence.
I studied this thing for a while and couldn't see any reason why it wouldn't have been rideable back in the day.
Not that I'd have wanted to.
