Vertol 107 N185CH Knutsford Cheshire

Post by NTG1610 »

Kawasaki-Vertol 107 N185CH of Heliswiss ex Thai Army 4003

Helicopter arrived into Tatton Park Knutsford aprox 13.15 to lift two pieces of heavy plant to a local waste water treatment facility
It should be noted the guys operating the Helicopter were very friendly allowing access as close as possible within safety rules, same has to be said for the National Trust staff who kept all the area around the landing site accessible

Sweet catch, always liked the Sea Knight family and as others have said always a rare bird in this country, I think I've seen three in 40+ years.

Great stuff but slightly annoyed! Damn thing went into the local at Tatenhill twice and I missed it.. twice! Great machine, apparently has replaced the Ka-32 that has been used previously due to obvious reasons..
