OO-SHW (cn 1538) Damaged while operating as G-AZYB, this Bell 47H, one of only 33 built, has been restored to the colours it wore with the Belgian Antarctic Expedition. Looks quite different from the usual Bell 47 profile due to the enclosed cabin and tailboom. Has also carried the registrations LN-OQG and SE-HBE. |

VH-FUB (cn 3166) Heliwork WA Bell 206B VH-FUB lifts off from the remote Mitchell Falls Helipad in the Kimberley, West Australia. The helo is starting a 48 minute Coastal Tour, which passed Crystal Head, and circled both sets of Mitchell River Falls. The lack of doors on the Jet Ranger allowed un-obstructed photography during the flight. |

VH-KSV / 601 (cn 45387) Heliwork WA Bell 206L-1 VH-KSV arrives at the remote Mitchell Falls Helipad in the Kimberley, West Australa. We were about to start a 48 minute Coastal Tour, which passed Crystal Head, and circled both sets of Mitchell River Falls. The lack of doors on the Long Ranger allowed un-obstructed photography during the flight. It was one of the best scenic flights I have done in 40 years! |
