Interesting Visitor

Postby specter177 » Wed Mar 18, 2009 6:12 pm

A Hummingbird - the homebuilt helicopter based on the Sikorsky S-52 - showed up at the Ranch today, apparently invited by the only other helicopter we have on field. Both of them were flying around this evening.

Lynx helos have that too. Might be more common on naval helos
