Always nice to see a classic helicopter, but you can imagine my surprise when I looked up this bird's history, and found out she once was used to ferry Argentine President Isabel Peron to safety during an attempted coup in 1976! She now has a much more sedate job as a heavy lifter. This photo is copyright © Kevin Kuhn, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
