Helicopters NZ Ltd Help

[agalbraith]

Hi Guys

Dont suppose anyone here has any contacts at Helicopters NZ as I am putting the finishing touches on my Tamiya 48th Corsair(See modelling section....and yes I will post some completed pics soon!) and am wanting to do next a 48th Bell 212 or 412(have the conversion set from Belcher) as one of theirs. Either ZK HNO(or Z) and 412 ZK HNI.

I am wanting good walkaround pics of the choppers and particularly the floatation gear and interior.

Can anyone help me?

Thanks for looking

Anthony

Hi Anthony,

I notice in the latest Aviation News that two of the sis's are based at Timaru temporarily, and flown by pilots Steve Bone and Jim Finlayson. Both are ex-RNZAF and ex-Red Checkers. I knew Jimbo years ago when I serviced his flying clothing, and he's a really nice approachable chap. I don't know how to get directly in touch with him though but I would recommend you contact the company via this page and suss out if they have any choppers headed to your area in the near future.

Good luck, and looking forward to seeing the model (and the finished Corsair)
