An old favourite of mine in the Aviodome / Aviodrome, at last positioned for a decent photo. The Netherlands navy received three HO4S-3 helicopters on 9 September 1953. Cleopatra and Delilah crashed but Salomé survived to be retired in 1963. This photo is copyright © Peter de Jong, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
