Photo Comment

Built in 1960, initially imported in 1993 and has been off and on the register a couple of times, with last restoration in 2005. Still with VIH in 2023. 'VIH Logging' was only seen on this aircraft - in fact all their medium helos do logging work. The number 178 looks like a fire fighting call-sign.
